Yeah, just because it can fool the human eye doesn't mean it could fool a thorough examination or could be used as evidence in court. But the reverse is also true. A real video can be validated. They aren't going to be able to take the video of the guy walking into the secure server fault and claim its a deep fake... Harvey the invisible rabbit really deleted the logs. Or that the video of Prince Andrew having sex with a 14 year old is a deep fake... that's really the girls pedo stepfather. None of that will fly... unless FBI rigs the lab results or tampers with the evidence.
