I think it would be great if we had digital signatures for videos. Sort of like https, or a signed exe on windows. A video could be cryptographically signed at the time of creation. There could be some level of confidence then that if you're watching a signed video it's an unadulterated original copy created by say, Peter's iphone on July 5, 2023 at 11 pm.
That will get tricky as the second you upload a video to youtube or any cloud service, it gets transcoded into dozens of other different sized and formatted videos, which will effectively strip all that out. But I'm sure we could still come up with some solution that uniquely identify the source somehow.
