i’m late to post this…!
there are all the techniques known since 2019 about disabling surveillance cameras
takeaway:

1. disrupting the camera itself
   1.a) wearing reflexes around your head
   1.b) shining blinding lights into the cameras

2. 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) wearing face patterns all over your clothing
   2.c) wearing pins which make the AI hallucinate once processing the pin’s image

3. disrupting the recognition of personhood
   3.a) goggles or glasses to cover eyes & nose region of face, where the most data points are.
