New Technique For Making JPEG Images Copy-Evident

Gunkerty Jeb writes "The days of wondering whether those drunken sex party photos are indeed the Olsen Twins, or if they are just the Mary-Kate and Ashley's faces photo-shopped on the bodies of Lindsay Lohan and Amy Winehouse are OVER! A group of academic researchers at the University of Cambridge has developed a new technique for making JPEG images copy-evident, so that users can tell whether an image has been recompressed and copied."

    Nice try at getting fast karma from a first post, but that's not going to work. The screen shot will already be of the compressed image, and will still show signs of re-compressing it.
