Facial recognition
technology isn’t part of science fiction anymore, it’s something that’s
being employed by a handful of governments around the world, and even
private enterprise is getting in on it with applications like
Facedeals. If you don’t want to be pinged in public by a surveillance
suite though, hacktivist group Anonymous have made a handy
instructional video to keep you safe.
Tips to dodge facial recognition software include wearing a clear
plastic mask to make your facial features unrecognisable to video
surveillance, because your face appears all reflecty and blurred.
Another way the Anons suggest is to tilt your head more than 15 degrees
to the side, as software limitations means you’ll be rendered
undetectable. You can also apply “elaborate makeup” — Gotye-style — to
make yourself invisible to facial recognition tech.
All of these make you look pretty silly, though.
The best way to do it that the Anons recommend is to get a few infrared
lights powered by a nine-volt battery and attach it to to a hat. The
lights will be relatively invisible to the naked eye, but cameras
looking to identify you will pick up the light and the resulting bloom
will cover your face completely when viewed by cameras. [Full]
It's
very important that we begin trying to beat traffic cams,
drones, facial recognition, and any other snoopology being sold
to as as "for for own security. The reason—Americans are leery
of
these devices as it is, but that hasn't stopped their
proliferation.
Any nascent police state has to sell the idea to enough people that
they can make arrests and prosecute without a ground swell of
protest. Weak sisters need to see widespread resistence NOW.
It's not just our government, it's the world order; an idea this
government has bought into by the way.
Drudge
had the Civilian
Drone Warfare story up earlier today (OMFG!
Now, a new online video poses a more troubling question: What if
civilian drones are equipped to shoot more than just pictures?OMFG).
The media will ride this story like a bull on a cute a cow.
The Newtowne shooting is already being employed as justification to rip
up the constitution. And face it- you won't see people employing home built
drones, unless and until there's open rebellion of the Warsaw ghetto variety.
Hell, back in 2007 I
advocated private civilian use of cammmed up drones
to guard the US-Mexican border, That meme continued for awhile,
to a
point where I mounted shotguns on them, and had high school kids
patrolling sectors. First a warning shit, then a mini nuke.
Not a new idea then. Problem
now is, we have a gummint that will use drones to control us while allowing the
wholesale influx of illegals! Tell me that's not something
that needs fighting!
