->> watch out for Adobe AP (Alteration Proof) software in the future.

Physics comes into play with degrees of light, 3D refection of eyes, and most impressive, pixel cloning detection.

Thanks Jesse

->> Great watch. It is very awesome.

It isn't fair in the spot the fake part. The photos are too small on some of them to see the detail they show in the video. I guess they are showing how they potentially could run on the web.

I loved the swipe card access to adobe. It looked like he was going into a laser tag arena.



On a more relevant note along with what David was saying, do you think we should expect to see newsrooms running software on all photos before they go to press?

->> only if they want to "stay" creditable?

Why not. You load the office computers down with Photoshop, Vegas, Photo Mechanic, and Audition why not buy one more program that would keep your press from becoming news itself.
