everest:
If Adobe gets enough partners to implement this it will be really beneficial on many levels but as content creators for sure it is a welcome feature.

A claim is a digitally signed data structure that represents a set of assertions along with one or more cryptographic hashes on the data of an asset.

yet since it's encrypted, it can't be changed by viewers.
from the dpreview
--- Quote ---The CAI digital content attribution system will only succeed if major hardware and software companies implement the standard into their products. ..

A big question for us is whether agencies will use CAI on existing libraries.
Visualab:
does it apply to footage as well???
