Juggalos figured out how to beat facial recognition

quote [ The world welcomed Juggalos to The Resistance when they marched on Washington en masses to protest the policies of the Trump administration. As if they weren't already doing the absolute most, the die-hard fans of the rap group Insane Clown Posse have become accidental heroes for people concerned about facial recognition tech: According to Twitter user @tahkion, a computer science blogger, Juggalo makeup outmatches the machine learning algorithms that govern facial recognition technology. "i made a breakthrough. it turns out juggalo makeup defeats facial recognition successfully. if you want to avoid surveillance, become a juggalo i guess" ]

No magnets required.

Follow-up to my post which mentions CV Dazzle and avoiding facial recognition using makeup: "Kamikaze assassination micro-drones are nigh! Are you prepared?" According to @tahkion, Juggalo makeup out-performs CV Dazzle.

Well, I'm pretty sure a Nixon mask or a paper bag works too... no need to dress up like an asshole.
