https://arstechnica.com/tech-policy/2020/03/how-china-built-facial-recognition-for-people-wearing-masks/?comments=1

quote:


Hanwang, the facial-recognition company that has placed 2 million of its cameras at entrance gates across the world, started preparing for the coronavirus in early January.

Since then, demand has soared, from police stations, railway stations and all the office towers that use Hanwang’s cameras to screen employees, and Mr Huang reassigned teams of people to work on the challenge.

The company now says its masked facial recognition program has reached 95 percent accuracy in lab tests, and even claims that it is more accurate in real life, where its cameras take multiple photos of a person if the first attempt to identify them fails.

I guess the question is how are they supposedly foiling masks?

It would be easy as hell to add some additional density to a mask, or materials to mess with infrared or whatever they're using.

to be honest I don't know how anyone on the left watches the news these days without going "oh, we're on the losing side of an arms race"

there's no victory to be had in some supposed moral high ground of going "Well actually I think we should ban all of those" to a bunch of nazis about to plug you full of lead

One of my mom's Medicare caregivers who works as a nurse around "non-COVID patients" is in the hospital for pneumonia. She last visited 21 days ago. It doesn't really make sense to have a Medicare caregiver coming around, because I can be the one doing that, but it's a "she'll lose her Medicare unless she has it continually because of means-testing" situation

i don't think private gun ownership has anything to do with the arms race. the guns that matter are carried by the cops.

i remember reading somewhere that facial recognition software targets the area where nose eye and forehead meet. so occluding that area with makeup can help foil it
