A big biometric security company in the UK, Facewatch, is in hot water after their facial recognition system caused a major snafu - the system wrongly identified a 19-year-old girl as a shoplifter.

They can’t stop all of us. If they outlaw using it, I’d support (or even organize) a protest group that organizes widespread use of them.
Well in that case, one brand of such glasses is Reflectacles 😎
Cool! Looks like they also have a discount for Monero purchases. I might have to pick one up.
I wish they would make a line available for cheap so a charity could hand them out for free, ~$150 is a bit much.
Very neat, I wonder how effective they are at confusing facial recognition and 3D facial scanning systems? Not that we often encounter the 3D scanning, but an interesting aspect to consider.
I just wonder if I’d get in trouble for wearing them at the airport. That’s the most likely place for 3D facial scanning.
But AFAIK, most facial recognition systems use IR, whether they’re 2D or 3D, so I would guess they’d be pretty effective.
