  Can FBI geeks identify legal/illegal images?[->] 2008-06-06 01:53 destinyland

Submitted by destinyland on Friday June 06, @01:53AM
The FBI's geeks admitted they were nervous over computer-generated images at a recent forensics conference. In court they're now arguing that a jury "can tell" if an image is real or computer-generated — which marks the current boundary between legal and illegal. But reporter Debbie Nathan argues that that distinction is getting fuzzy, and that geeks will inevitably make it obsolete.
