Comment on College students used Meta’s smart glasses to dox people in real time

Potentially fashionable solution:
Get your own glasses, get some sufficiently powerdul IR emitting LEDs, attach them to the frame, wire them to a battery.
Result: Most cameras will see your face as a blinding white spot.
Apparently ‘Reflectables’ claims to achieve a similar result passively, with reflective frames and lenses.

I’ve heard of coats with that passively blinding IR effect before, though the active one is basically IRCM or infrared dazzlers. Another option would be asymmetric makeup with sharp geometric shapes - anything that would help break up the normal identifiers of a face. I remember seeing this proposed many years ago as a countermeasure to facial recognition software.
