Star Haze@starhaze Thread only gets worse... 🙃
@sten0_SE that link goes to the front page for me
@starhaze Sory my mastoN00B-ness is showing.
Basically just ramble on about cheaper storage costs preventing barriers to entry and the types of reconition: gait, gesture, body language, tattoo, car body style, facial etc
Add in some bitching about poor vendor security and monetizing data being the main draw for tech anymore
@sten0_SE ooh the thread that i replied to... yah that shit is fucked and fit stuff like gait in don't see a way to prevent identification reliably
@starhaze Hey, I did say N00Bness... lol.
Light-reflective material coupled with a light source is about the only answer I can honestly come up with.
@sten0_SE yeah i guess that would work for all cameras huh?
@starhaze Not 💯 % sure - typical cat and mouse I think.
There's anti-reflective coatings/lenses (think sunglasses) plus thermal vision. I would think most of those measures are cost-prohibitive for now but ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
@sten0_SE yah if they move to ir/ultrasound/em then the game changes significantly
