> I'm personally looking forward to wearing a mask long after this pandemic has passed, to defend my privacy against ubiquitous facial recognition.

I'm not sure I would "look forward" to that, if you mean that in the colloquial sense.




Chinese on camera facial recognition is able to identify peolke even when wearing a mask.

I think if you combine it with a cycling cap/baseball hat it's more effective, since cameras are usually placed higher than one's eyes.


On to gait recognition and non-stop location tracking it is, then. :-(
