When I saw them using Iris scanners in Iraq 20+ years ago, I just knew they were going to start scanning people in the US with them Keep in mind they are using them BEFORE a person is under arrest and even just protestors If they can do that, someday there is going to be exponential resolution advancement where a Flock camera can do it from a distance Imagine being able to walk up to a crowd and just iris scan everyone from a distance, that day is coming, it's just a technical limit for now (instead today they collect BLE and wifi mac addresses on your phones)

We’ve all seen minority report. Some executive somewhere is foaming at the mouth to scan your iris and connect the data broker dots when you walk into a store. I’m sure they’re already fingerprinting your iPhone or scanning your face when you walk into certain places. Some team is probably working on an Iris scanner.

Swap out colored contact lenses frequently. Maybe someone will figure out how to make Rorschach style morphing lenses with thermochromic pigments. Edit: found these after doing some searches on diy contact lenses and thermochromic lenses https://patents.google.com/patent/US20220066236A1/en https://patents.google.com/patent/US20220066236A1/en https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC10643561/ https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC10643561/

they did the same thing in Afghanistan and some scanners were found by the talibans once american soldiers left. Somebody even bought these from ebay and retro-engineered the software to access the data.
