One way to counter facial recognition is by applying makeup in a certain pattern that resembles David Bowie or 80's style cyberpunks. [1]
That 80's vision of the future really is here.

- FullMtlAlcoholc 10y agoHence the whole David Bowie/Lady Gaga look of it. We'd just need to make glam rock/punk popular again!
- tpeo 10y agoJust (adverb): 1. Exactly. 2. (ironic, oblivious) Used to imply that an otherwise impossible task is just the opposite. Time travelling is possible. We just need to get our hands on some of that negative energy.
- mjevans 10y agoYeah, if you're going to go that far you'd get hassled in places -anyway-... so may as well make it a nice Guy Fawkes mask.

- Animats 10y agoThat just generates hard edges for tracking, allowing the building of a 3D model. Requires motion tracking type software rather than regular facial recognition, but is quite do-able.
- orblivion 10y agoI'm definitely attending that protest.
- GVIrish 10y agoProblem is that so few people would be wearing dazzle makeup that the act of wearing dazzle makeup would get you more government attention instead of less.
- FullMtlAlcoholc 10y agoTime for a new era of glam rock then EDIT: If you wore it all the time to avoid mass surveillance that would be a problem. If you selectively wore it only when, say you're visiting a prostitute or engaging in some other behavior you want to keep private, it's a viable alternative. EDIT 2: Also, as a response to this, I foresee that people will just wear masks that impersonate other people, either some form of temporary plastic surgery or a full-on device similar to the one in the original Total Recall. Too many people value their privacy of movement.
