"Metadata — or the invisible descriptive data attached to files that describe facts like the file’s origin, date of creation and date of modification — could be a key defense against deepfakes in the near future. "
great, so instead of trying to get away from all of the pervasive tracking our devices/apps to, we're going to come to depend on it to prove someone's fake evidence is fake. of course, they'll say that metadata is easier to fake than the alleged deep-fake.
I'm really not enjoying this timeline
