Pro tip: stop treating every grainy photo as proof of a psyop

I used to jump on every blurry blimp pic and call it a cover up until my buddy who does forensics in Denver walked me through what compression artifacts really look like. Now I wait 48 hours before I buy into anything, so what's the last 'smoking gun' you saw that fell apart under a second look?

Same thing happens with those "caught on ring camera" clips that get passed around. Nine times out of ten it's just a bug on the lens or somebody's porch light flickering. We want the spooky answer so bad we skip right past the boring one.
