I was the push behind Opera Softwares 'Face Gestures' April fool. This was concise over a lunch time chat, vetted by my manager and went to production (I would link the video but struggling to copy/paste). I felt it was amusing and some might believe it at the beginning but 99% of people would realise it's a joke by the end of the video. The response was good. It was fun for us to make something different and gave our users a laugh and got a bit of press for the brand. I think this is the goal more than actually fooling large numbers of people. Some harmless fun so to say.
That said over the years we had a few people asking about this feature as a serious option...
