i'm late to post this..!
there are techniques known since 2019 about disabling surveillance cameras, i wanna remind everyone so here's a post
takeaway:
-
disrupting the camera itself
1.a) wearing reflexes around your head
1.b) shining blinding lights into the cameras
-
disrupting the gen AI calculations
2.a) shining small infra-red lights onto your face, which makes you appear as someone else completely
2.b) having really avant garde bangs (wigs exist) and wearing facial jewellery in straight lines (make-up glue)
2.c) wearing face patterns all over your clothing
2.d) wearing pins which make the AI hallucinate once processing the pin's image
-
disrupting the recognition of personhood
3.a) goggles or glasses to cover eyes & nose region of face, where the most data points are.
let me know if i missed something or you happen to know more tricks-
i'm also curious about setting up a personal "try-out if your outfit disrupting AI surveillance" station for those near me, let me know if you've done anything like it before because i and others will gladly learn!
A baseball bat and confidence also works ๐
You might consider employing some of these techniques while doing it. It might save you from unwanted imperial involvement.
Good point, thanks!
