There’s really not much you can do. There’s just too many cameras in the public spaces. If any government official wants to see who’s visited an abortion clinic, they can just have the local traffic camera company tell them.
We need to ban the government getting around the 4th amendment by partnering with private companies.
Depends on how advanced thw surveillance systems are. Yeah, I would consider driving to be impossible to do anonymously - but when it comes to walking or using public transport, depends. I am not sure just how well they can track a person with a covered face on those.
they can, and China already publicly has been for a few years using gait analysis, i.e. looking at how you walk. in his book, Edward Snowden mentions putting a rock in his shoe to change up his gait while walking in Russia
Yes, I am aware of such technology - they announced similar capabilities in our existing surveillance system. I know that it is most likely not as advanced as China’s, because that’s how it usually is here. However, it is not clear just how good it is in practice - at least in some cases, they’ve been overselling it (at least in regards to recognizing obstructed faces). So I am not sure just how dangerously accurate said gait recognition is, especially since they have much better facial recognition to depend on.
yeah for sure, i doubt it’s incredibly accurate on its own. if you’ve got a unique body or an injury that affects your walk or something i bet you’re pretty screwed though (i know i’d be an easy one). plus our police love using incomplete pseudosciences, e.g. ballistics forensics and polygraphs, so i’d still be keeping it in mind

You don’t have to drive all the way to the actual place
Yeah, but I don’t see the point of driving here at all.
