@eff Well, we should start by saying #fuckcars. This is bad on bad to some extent.

But to the extent this effects cyclists and pedestrians, it sucks. Sucks to have to cover your face in the heat of summer to escape facial recognition recording. If it comes to that, I’ll strap an a/c unit to the bike and pipe cold air into a full face helmet.
