    Was it really that hard to Photoshop enough to bypass mods that are not experts at photo forensic?

      I think it takes a considerable amount of work to photoshop something written on a sheet of paper that has been crumpled up and flattened back out.

      It’s mostly about filtering the low-hanging fruit, aka the low effort trolls, repost bots, and random idiots posting revenge porn.

        As in most things. I don’t have security cameras to capture video of someone breaking in. I have them so my neighbours house looks like an easier target.

      It would be easier to create verification photos with a particular expression this way. “Post a verification photo, frowning, with a blue pen in your teeth” for example, which might well be difficult to photoshop but no harder than anything else to aigen.

      there’s a lot of tools to verify if something was photoshopped or not… you don’t need to be an expert to use them

        I tried some one day and I didn’t find any that is actually easy for a noob, I remember having to check resolution, contrast, spatial frequency disruption etc. and nothing looked easy to detect without proper training.

          You can verify the resolution changes across a video or photo. This can be overcome by setting a dpi limit to your lowest resolution item in the picture, but most people go with what looks best instead of a flat level.
