 Isn't photography and video considered "support" for evidence and
testimony, rather than evidence in fact as regards the justice system?

Neil sez: In another fifty years or so, I doubt whether a video or a
photograph will be accepted as
evidence it court as the means to produce doctored images
indistinguishable from the real thing will be within the reach of
almost anyone.

We'll have to go back to trusting people's reputations and integrity

form our view of the World.
