It seems like it could be useful for journalists to have secure cameras with secured GPS annotations. Idea would be to tie the photograph or video with a hardware signature on the camera that was very hard to tamper with. By the time any bitmap was generated and stored, it would have an invisible watermark that could prove who took the photo, where and when it was taken. This would naturally fit into a NFT type approach to distribution. I think it is plausible Russia could say the video was doctored, and in fact possible to do. Like the ones that were on the New York Times the other day with projectiles coming in from above and hitting near civilians.
