it's good to know that the US must be in fantastic shape that the FBI even has the resources to spend on this.
All this is going to do is drive the resistance underground and into guerrilla warfare tactics. When we can't peaceably voice our displeasure, our outrage, we'll take to less peaceful eays.
More of this western freedom I’ve been hearing so much aboot.
Always wear non-descript long-sleeve black shirts. Loose fitting and easily moved in black pants. Non-descript black face-mask. Non-descript black safety sunglasses. Non-descript black gloves. Make sure tattoos or other identifying marks are covered. Never take off your mask. If you can, the best option is to thrift these options and buy them with cash.
Temporary tattoos can help confound identification.
Also, don't post your face on social media.
That's the hardest part, I guess.
There's also gait detection, so maybe wear something like platform shoes or tight pants? I'm not entirely sure how to counter that
Butt plugs
Smart butt plugs that scramble their face detection software.
And face plugs to scramble their butt detection software
Gotta have airtight opsec.
Hypothetically speaking, one can put a pebble or small object in their shoe to force oneself to change their gate
I think I've heard putting a rock in your shoe is effective, though obviously not comfortable.
Has anyone ever been successfully prosecuted based on gait?
Surely they will prosecute in a legal manner, surely the fascists will follow the law.
ok but that's paranoia, who's to say your faked gait won't get someone else hanged then?
gait isn't proof of identity, if they're gonna do that they can just round you up anyway
Walk with a limp and be consistent.
Wear a butt plug?
Most don’t change the way you walk if your ass is a veteran.
Ok, remove the buttplug, then.
3D ass chess
That's easy to say, but it's also easy to forget to limp if you're focused on something else. Maybe you have to run from riot cops.
Keyser Soze did it, so can you.
Cory Doctorow says put gravel in your shoes. Yrmv
Just one shoe
I heard walking with umbrellas will confuse gait detection but idk if true
Buy it from Goodwill and throw it away at the dump later
Surely a white surgical facemask is more generic.
I feel like black is better at hiding detail. Women's slips are black vs white for example.
Black is traditional but someone will be in surgical blue
“Technology has transformed the act of being in public,” in fact it instills fears of reprisal by participating in a manifestation, which leads to less people manifesting against problems, which leads to more freedom of those in power to do as they will...
Kinda fucked up
Buy 10 rubber masks that resemble your own face. Wear one, sometimes. Make sure all your friends know that! Sell the other 9 pieces somewhere, anonymously.
Then you can say: their evidence is worthless, because that camera has never seen my real face. You can never know if it was me.
Watch them try to prove anything ;-)
Don't stake your freedom on contrived technicalities.
Fortunately, it would likely never even make it in front of a judge. If you do manage to waste a judge's time with this garbage, be prepared for your attorney (and/or you) to have an unpleasant day.
Yes, the Nazis were revered for the comprehensive trials that occured before shipping any Jew off to a concentration camp.
