That's incredible! Not only Linkedin is almost 100% AI slop, but it's certified, thanks to the #C2PA ministry of slop!
Sadly @LinkedIn is not on the C2PA Conforming Products List, and it still happily strip the "Content Credentials" from the video stream.

The @adobe.com @contentauth.bsky.social has launched a new ad campaign targeting artists for the #C2PA "Adobe Content Authenticity" abandonware. With a 30 min(!) weird merchandising "podcast" and the usual Instagram vertical reel.
As always, the "durable attribution" is one click away of deletion.

The BBC calls its C2PA "stamping tool" open source, yet no repo exists.
From what I saw at IBC, it looked like nothing more than FFmpeg drawtext (v0.6, 2010) for watermarking, wrapped with Adobe’s c2patool and its WASM C2PA decoder.
There was no demo with the Sony Camera, probably not compatible.

The #C2PA Watermarking Task Force (WTF) claims to have launched “the most robust and accessible content verification system ever deployed in a developing nation.”

And there you have it, #C2PA certified crash!

Adaptive streams? Nowhere to be found.
Metadata? Dumped like a CRT-TV.

I got my hands on a Sony PXW‑Z300 camera with #C2PA support!
The #C2PA implementation is minimal: just a signature (no timestamp), "SONY CAMERA" listed as the generator, and a 160×120 thumbnail. That’s all.
However, there’s also a "private" SSIG box (Sony Signature) containing XDCAM XML metadata.

"Open standard"? unreadable specs → non‑compliant results.
"Open source code"? guarded by @adobe.com → bloated & painful to debug.
Result:
#IPTC , the global standards body of the news media, fails compliance, and their Verify tool (@adobe.com) blesses forgeries.
