Wow, next up Photoshop filters/brushes too?

I believe Virgina has already passed legislation so broad and abstract as to make photoshop and other image editing tools illegal. Like most laws of this type it's not about stopping an immoral or illegal activity. It's about control of people in power's public image. It will only be enforced if you piss off someone rich or powerful.

You're sort of twenty years late, photoshop is already used to create fake nudes. It's not like it's even hard.

Where's the outcry over Photoshop?
