Road to Reality: How FACStamps Emerged to Combat the Fake News Epidemic
- Deepfakes threatened to undermine democracy, but solutions were complex and not widely adopted at first
- A massive deepfake disinformation attack after the 2024 election caused legal and civil chaos

- FACStamps indicate content is authentic and fragily disappear if AI manipulation is detected
- Legislation is pending to mandate FACStamps to ensure a "Right to Reality" in sectors like government, shopping, and real estate
