It’s my understanding they don’t work against all kinds of depth scanners and that there are some researchers/agencies who are using gait tracking which is promising and doesn’t require facial recognition. I assume it might require mass surveillance and that gaits may be localized, but the general sense I have, is we shouldn’t get complacent and every time we think we are safe, we are probably not being creative enough.

- codezero 6y agoI'd like to see if that actually works as an adversarial technique to gait tracking, I would assume it wouldn't - given that a gait has a lot of variables, a pebble in the shoe should just tweak one or two, and only reduce significance, but not throw a wrench in the identification entirely.
