that's true enough. I guess my starting point is photographs for evidence in civil trials, which is another type of thing altogether. Authentication becomes even more critical in criminal trials.
I think it greatly depends on the purpose of the photograph. Certainly, photographs depicting news events should be held to a higher standard of . . . unalterability? than a pic for an ad should be.
