    blockchain is a totally useless extra bit glued on there. All the real evidence will be the cryptographic signatures added by the hardware manufacturer (which can be faked, but requires extracting the keys from the “security chip” in the camera which may be very difficult)

    all the blockchain does at that point is provide a timestamp of “signed hash of the picture+metadata was uploaded on x date” which can easily be done without blockchain too
