Obviously, this can be used to simply lie about not having a dog. On the other hand, it is also the way you deal with any objections that might be raised if you are dealing with a claim that is wrong on many different levels. Say that someone posts what they claim is a video showing a Tesla roadster wrecking on autopilot while the driver was watching a movie.

It is very logical for Tesla to point out if it isn't actually a roadster in the photo. Further, they can say that even if it was, the roadster doesn't have autopilot. Even if it was a roadster and the roadster came with autopilot and the driver was using autopilot, the driver is still responsible for paying attention to the road and keeping hands on the wheel.
