This is a thread about technology, although the political ramifications are truly frightening.  I've been following stories on this for awhile; basically, computer tech that allows near unidentifiable "photochopping" of video.

    For sure we’ll see this kind of tech weaponized for political purposes, and lots of folks will get fooled without ever learning that they were.  A lie can travel halfway around the world before the truth has a chance to put on its shoes.

    So far all the videos I’ve seen of this stuff look terrible and obvious. But over time they are going to get better and better and everyone should be very very worried about it.
