#4Are they going to start telling you when they're wearing makeup or not?
With PS, it's impossible to say when viewing it on print/low-res media if the job was done correctly

#10We've seen first steps toward this in the UK. Ads for mascara now have to say if the image is photoshopped or not. This is mostly policed by the companies themselves, reporting each other to Advertising Standards.
This is very different, it is specifically about thinness, I believe that anorexia (or if not anorexia at least the psychological troubles that can lead to it) are becoming very common among teens, so it is more than anything else a "public health" campaign to remove the (false, or retouched) images of impossibly thin models from becoming the "reference model" of the youngers.
There was already something similar in a few EU countries, where Laws or Codes of Conduct were made prohibiting to hire fashion models with a BMI lower than 18 for the catwalk: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Body_mass_index#Legislation
The debate was at the time (and still is) whether the BMI in itself is a good metrics.
