They're pretty easy to spot; they're the ones that keep saying "if you have nothing to hide you shouldn't be worried about surveillance". If you have nothing to hide then take your pants off; run down the street naked and take a huge runny crap in the middle of a busy intersection.

      Most underrated comment. The entire point of defeating a facial recognition system, is to defeat both human and machine facial recognition. If one goes out looking like a clown, then you will be stopped and searched, rather than allowed to pass.

    • @jamieohare2428
      @jamieohare2428 3 ปีที่แล้ว +9

      The key to actually defeating it would be using makeup to highlight other areas (if possible), or other ways which won’t call attention to you. Need to be a true “gray man”, both to those around you and to the cameras.
      This is also the problem with infrared LEDs, if those CCTVs are monitored you’ll find yourself being side saddled by security pretty quickly. If you know where the cameras are the touching the face might be good in the moment, but there are too many cameras so unless your hand is glued to your face... “don’t mind me officer, I was in an industrial accident... can I go now?”
      Would love to see how to defeat it without too much attention. Thick nose glasses maybe? Covid mask? Haha. In the end, once something is developed the researchers on the other side will be trying to compensate and defeat the newest trick.

    “If you don’t have anything to hide, you shouldn’t be concerned” -> That’s BS. Violating privacy and full-on tracking is not ethical, it violates the core principle of being human. In the name of security, you shall not have secrets anymore and anybody from private companies, public institutions and/or simply the curious eye can know what you do on a daily basis? Unfortunately, you can’t battle efficiently against facial recognition or tracking in general. You would need to live in an area with no cameras, not have a mobile phone, no IoT and only paying in cash -> good luck to start doing this in 2020

      I'm torn on this debate. When you leave your home; at least in the US presently; you aren't guaranteed a right to privacy. If you want to retain privacy you need to become a cave dweller like myself. The number of things we'd need to ban to prevent facial recognition at this point would be astounding. CCTVs for example, would you ban stores from keeping camera footage for possible thief,etc.
      This debate always gets my panties in a bunch. Maybe not the Hak5 community; but most people crying about this own a cell phone. You can't cry about tracking via your face in public while simultaneously offering all trust to your cell carrier. For all we know they are giving the gov't a detailed map of your movement even with location services turned off.
      You've got me beat for an argument if you only buy prepaid credit cards with cash and exclusively use a trak phone or similar burner. At that point I'll agree you're serious and drop the subject. You'll have won.

    “ *Those who are capable of tyranny are capable of perjury to sustain it* .”
    “... *only those who have the will and the power to shoot down their fellow men, are the real rulers in this, as in all other (so-called) civilized countries; for by no others will civilized men be robbed, or enslaved* .”
    ― Lysander Spooner, No Treason: The Constitution of No Authority
    *"So these villains, who call themselves governments, well understand that their power rests primarily upon stolen money* . *With money they can hire soldiers, and with soldiers extort money* . *And, when their authority is denied, the first use they always make of money, is to hire soldiers to kill or subdue all who refuse them more money* ."
    *-The payment of taxes, being compulsory, of course furnishes no evidence that any one voluntarily supports the Constitution* .
    *It is true that the theory of our Constitution is, that all taxes are paid voluntarily; that our government is a mutual insurance company, voluntarily entered into by the people with each other; that each man makes a free and purely voluntary contract with all others who are parties to the Constitution, to pay so much money for so much protection, the same as he does with any other insurance company; and that he is just as free not to be protected, and not to pay any tax, as he is to pay a tax, and be protected* .
    *But this theory of our government is wholly different from the practical fact* . *The fact is that the government, like a highwayman, says to a man: Your money, or your life* . *And many, if not most, taxes are paid under the compulsion of that threat* ;.
    *The government does not, indeed, waylay a man in a lonely place, spring upon him from the road side, and, holding a pistol to his head, proceed to rifle his pockets* . *But the robbery is none the less a robbery on that account; and it is far more dastardly and shameful* .
    *The highwayman takes solely upon himself the responsibility, danger, and crime of his own act* . *He does not pretend that he has any rightful claim to your money, or that he intends to use it for your own benefit* . *He does not pretend to be anything but a robber* . *He has not acquired impudence enough to profess to be merely a “protector,” and that he takes men’s money against their will, merely to enable him to “protect” those infatuated travellers, who feel perfectly able to protect themselves, or do not appreciate his peculiar system of protection* . *He is too sensible a man to make such professions as these* . *Furthermore, having taken your money, he leaves you, as you wish him to do* . *He does not persist in following you on the road, against your will; assuming to be your rightful “sovereign,” on account of the “protection” he affords you* . *He does not keep “protecting” you, by commanding you to bow down and serve him; by requiring you to do this, and forbidding you to do that; by robbing you of more money as often as he finds it for his interest or pleasure to do so; and by branding you as a rebel, a traitor, and an enemy to your country, and shooting you down without mercy, if you dispute his authority, or resist his demands* . *He is too much of a gentleman to be guilty of such impostures, and insults, and villanies as these* . *In short, he does not, in addition to robbing you, attempt to make you either his dupe or his slave* .
    *The proceedings of those robbers and murderers, who call themselves “the government,” are directly the opposite of these of the single highwayman* .

      What history buffs of Mr. Spooner attempt to hide or diminish is that he was a Socialist. A scary word to many today, but not so much to those alive when the making of this Nation. As for myself it is not a problem personally.
      His words and description of government has several samplings of truth.
      One thing though, is saying that we "don't give consent" to how government treats us, in this I must point out, that by the mere act in partaking of Elections and choosing members as our "representatives" in government we MAY be unintentionally agreeing to government "slavery".
      I remind one also, that the unique Mr. Spooner existed in the 1800's, taking on the entire U.S. government with weapons and force, in the modern era, and think to be successful is perhaps, at best, improbable.
      Government officials have declared people of Mr. Spooner's idealism as being "Sovereign Citizens" and have thus labeled them as enemies and anarchists and to be treated as such, which is why these ideas are not, at present, in the mainstream of society.
      All that being said, Mr. Spooner was quite an Individual and his history deserves the bit of attention it is given.

The problem with the whole approach is the cheapening of RGBD cameras (with depth info). They tend to care way less about the nose area, as depth map is 3d

    Yeah, with dark and bright zone you only trick the Haar detector.
    Once you have the eyeball you can measure the distance between the eyes. If the Python code uses some advanced AAM / ASM methods, it may be pretty robust.
    You can only trick a well-developed AAM/ASM if you are systematically going against its mesh parameter detection. You need to "widen" the face (I would suggest a skin-colored wig), maybe alter the position of the nose opening (drawing black marks as the continuation of the nose opening under or above).
    Try and modify the position of your eye by adding some white makeup next to the outer side of your eye (mimic the eye, no black spots. Black spots would result in a misdetection and the algorithm would probably approximate misdetected positions using some neighbouring detected points).
    These methods usually look for "corners" and "edges" in color contrast.

    Just going to put this out as a software developer. Facial recognition is going to get vastly better in the near future. We can already map one person's face onto another. How hard do you think it will be to clean up an image of stuff like makeup? Not real hard. Probably the most assured way of defeating facial recognition is simply to make sure it can't see you to start with. Blinding the camera with high power UV (yep UV not IR) can be done rather easy. Just make sure you aren't looking at the light source when it's on. If it's powerful enough to blind the camera it's powerful enough to cause permanent eye damage. If you a real crazy way to defeat facial recognition. People pierce their faces all over these days. Imagine they use a micro LED in those piercings. To cops and so on it's jewelry. nose stud, cheeks, eye brow, lips and so on...
