I guess this is better than nothing, but what happens if you take a photo of a generated photo? There are setups where the result will be impossible to tell that it's a photo of a photo, and then you can have the camera digitally sign the fake photo as real.
Consoles (Xbox, Nintendo, PlayStation) are all hacked eventually. All that will happen is someone will hack a camera to sign any image sent to it.
I think this tech (signed pictures) is just going to make the problem worse. Once a camera is hacked, it's "signed" but fake... Same spot we are now but now we have fake verified pictures
Sony will ban any PSN account if they found using a modded console.
And I'll be sure to let them know that I use windower add-ons and DAT mods when playing FF11. Maybe they'll ban my PS2/PlayOnline from any future updates?
Facebook will not ban users spreading fake signed pictures.
