Reality Check – We accept your challenge Mr Zullo

Reality check has challenged Mr Zullo

What will Zullo do? He can chose to show how a ‘criminal investigation’ deals with information that contradicts its findings, or he can ignore it.

Either way, Zullo is faced with quite an unfortunate situation of his own creation.

It should come as no surprise that the JPEG’s quantization tables and the Comment match. Even the masking layer matches, as in both cases you need to release the mask once to be able to select all the objects, contrary to Hermitian’s claims.

Hermitian once again shows why Zullo should be looking and why he probably won’t.
