C2PA is cryptographic signing. It certifies a digital original. This is the same thing web encryption is based off of. In combination with auditable camera firmware, it would produce .dngs that are as trustworthy as physical negatives. FOSS firmware could say "this camera doesn't edit its shit" and the cryptographic signing would prove that it was the original file. Simple as that. Not edited. Real light.
These are camera features that will never proliferate to things consumers can afford. Not because of any capitalist reason, it would cost $0 to do so, but because of reasons that marxists and socialists would also employ. Backroom deals. They don't want normies being able to produce truth. OVF or EVF. Rather, cameras consumers can afford will have AI post processing trickle up to them. Because it is so much simpler to say "your camera has AI post processing, all of your photos are fake" than run live video editing on an EVF. And then to have the real photos, all of your state agents taking staged shots in studios are using FOSS firmware, C2PA enabled nikon Z1s, so you can have a monopoly on truth. "Of course our photos are real, here, the firmware on this camera is open source, check it all out! ;)"
It's simple. It's effective. It gives most consumers what they want (on-camera hdr, no noise, so shahp!). It gives the state what they want, which is a monopoly on real photography. And it is reliable and low tech.
Also see: Why monitor every individual PC, when people can just be guided onto "the cloud"? Bam, nothing is private, no bugs on your PC required. And we're using linux on the server, so you can trust us! Dumb fucks.
The only thing close to this is shooting negatives, and it is so extremely difficult to fake a negative down to a forensics-proofed level that when they have to fake negatives they have to "lose" the originals.
