If your identity ever gets stolen, you could end up in the hole for a lot of money and general trouble. Sometimes things fall through the cracks in the system.

Of course, having a legal system, however flawed, is better than not having one at all.

The watermarking evidence is just that, evidence. It is not the only way a person can end up with evidence incorrectly pointing to their guilt in a crime. And like any crime, you will get your day in court.

I really despise the double standard and special privileges expected by people when it comes to digital anything. Regardless of which side they are on.
