   This is so insanely complex and requires placing trust in the correctness of so many pieces, many of them closed-source. And uploading every verified "developed" image to Apple's servers. And giving up full control of the software and hardware you "own". All to achieve a goal of "verifying" photons, which is only a part of the real problem of verifying the truth of an event that was photographed.

   I hope that companies and governments don't start forcing us to use this stuff by requiring it for their services.

      That's the issue: Instead of trusting your neighbour or a photo journalist's integrity (and if this direct trust is missing, who else should you trust?), you trust a trillion dollar US company. Actor injection.
