    Whether or not this feature is on Samsung phones it will still be accessible. It already is really. You can’t hold back the tide.

      Yeah, you’re right. It still scares me somewhat, though. What happens when courts fall behind and continue to rely on photo evidence after photo evidence becomes easy for anyone to fake. What happens when the courts finally do realize that photos are unreliable?

      I don’t think this change can or should be stopped. It is just worrisome and thought should be put into how to mitigate the problems it will inevitably cause

        That’s not how courts work. It’s not like there’s a list of acceptable evidence that gets updated once in a while.

        Prosecutors and defenders will present evidence to jurors in their contemporary context.

        Basically, we all need to acknowledge that images do not convey “truth”, and really they never did.
