This looks like a hipster toy.

It’s possible that this could have value in journalism or law enforcement.

Just make it look the part. Make it black and put some decent lens on it.





I'm pretty sure forensic cameras already exist for this purpose. And as far as I can tell, there isn't really any bulletproof way to do this other than embed a signing key in the camera and hope no one manages to extract it, rendering the whole thing pointless.

I guess you could have a unique signing key per camera and blacklist known leaked keys.


Canon and Nikon both did this. You paid a premium for a “signature analysis” app. The target was for things like law enforcement, where authentication was important.

They got cracked with a year or two. Not sure if they still offer the capability.
