If get into smartphones, it became a mega cookie to track every single person, unless it can be deactivated.
I won’t be surprise that some SNS will require this soon for uploading media when the adoption is wide enough.
Sony will look to roll this out in Spring 2024 with its next wave of premium cameras, however, it’s not clear if there are plans to bring this to its flagship phones.
Where is the bot to summarize the news?
It kept making too many errors!
This rumor came from a Japanese site called sumahodigest which is know for reporting inaccurate rumors.
Just take a picture of your manipulated picture/video from the Sony phone. This does not guarantee anything of value.
With your current phone, go ahead and take two pictures - one normal, the other a picture of a picture of that thing
Now look at the two, and tell me you can’t tell in a split second that one is a picture of a picture. There’s a reason that it’s a running joke on the internet that people need to learn to take real screenshot instead of taking a picture of the monitor - there’s always annoying and obvious artifacts.
You’re imagining a future where screen resolution doesn’t improve and lenses can’t solve these issues? Are people really this short sighted?
Except smart phone cameras will also improve - if anything, I’d say that over the last decade, the average smart phone camera has improved at a much faster rate than your average computer monitor.
Combine what I said with all the other Metadata that will be collected, and I’m quite skeptical that you could fool an actual professional with your scheme.
I imagine time and location the photo was taken would also be encoded.
You could easily create a package that couples the authenticated device with a screen showing the faked images and bring that around. If there is a market for inauthentic images that appear authentic, people will easily bypass this technology.
With the resolution of modern phone cameras, don’t you think you’d be able to literally see the pixels? Besides, phone cameras usually can’t focus that close.
