"CV Dazzle" is a style of hair / makeup that is designed to prevent facial recognition. https://cvdazzle.com


An interesting art project, but I don't know many people who can make an ongoing commitment to doing makeup that resembles a World War 1 battleship.

i could see it becoming part of future fashion trends for the elite and/or criminal elements. then again maybe i watch too much cyberpunk.


The hairstyles in there look totally suitable for the cyberpunk 2077 45-minute preview:

And now all the security people are on the lookout for the person in strange makeup.


You know what - I'm OK with that. Security people have been tracking other people since the dawn of civilization.

It's security robots I have a problem with.


Well, so what. Those are really two separate problems.

Security and law enforcement is something you want to enable up to a point. Where that point lies is up to debate, but a different one. The topic here is fucking things up for advertisers. This I want to do indiscriminately. If they have to track me manually, that's a win too, because it's more expensive fro them.
