There is a technical solution: Have cameras sign the raw data recorded from the sensor in situ, which allows you to check if a given video was recorded on a given device. You could even add another layer where the device uploads timestamps, frame hashes and location data to a blockchain (finally a usecase!) to pin it to a certain place and time. Sure, all of this can be circumvented with enough effort, but it will make it much harder. Especially if a video can be pinned to a place, you can verify if it matches that scenery.
I don’t want a camera with a tpm, that perhaps even uploads my images to a third party. Also, if the cam has not connection that picture will just be counted as invalid? If a signing key will inevitably be leaked, authentic unauthentic Images will happen.

I think this system is flawed beyond repair.
Of course, but will that stop somebody from trying to push it? ;)
