i'm late to post this..!
there are techniques known since 2019 about disabling surveillance cameras, i wanna remind everyone so here's a post

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) having really avant garde bangs (wigs exist) and wearing facial jewellery in straight lines (make-up glue)
   2.c) wearing face patterns all over your clothing
   2.d) 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.

let me know if i missed something or you happen to know more tricks-
i'm also curious about setting up a personal "try-out if your outfit disrupting AI surveillance" station for those near me, let me know if you've done anything like it before because i and others will gladly learn!
