So, i've seen this proposed, and i don't see why blurring or blacking wouldn't work. Safer, too.
Plus, I've told lies that idiots misread and followed back to truth before. The machine has to have the faces fed in, which means you're creating a duplicate record, and the extent to which the users of this technology never seem to understand it makes me... I don't trust them to not accidentally use the cloud, much less successfully maintain an air gapped machine.
Again; this is frivolous bullshit, black bars exist, so the people using it would be enthusiasts, and every single person I've ever met who id trust with that kind of risk for those kind of stakes would laugh you out of the room for suggesting it.
The person who wanted to do this, wanted to make a poster that doesn't look scary to outsiders, by having blurred or blackened faces.
And chill with the condescension
Im generally a condescending asshole, and civil conversations on this topic are rare as fuck. Not used to them.
I don't get it.
Way I understand it, They didn't want to give flyers to outsiders for "come to our march /org /whatever" and be all blurred/black faces
Yeah but... Why?
Why not just inimate at thatbpoint, why use live fpotage at all?
Just ask them yourself mate https://slrpnk.net/post/23329676
