As if that stops police from using it to target randos or prosecutors from using it in court. The executive branch REALLY loves its junk science.

If anything, that re-enforces quick_snail's point that all these individualistic anti-surveillance tips and tricks are pointless.

Even if you did succesfully change your gait and wear black and use a special phone and didn't attend the action they're accusing you of attending, they'll jiggle the random number generator until it says you're guilty (p<0.05).

There is a point in a surveillance state where it makes more sense to [REDACTED] fascists in plain view rather than waste energy trying to do anything subversively. Either follow the CIA manual on malicious compliance or blow up a pipeline, no real middle ground.
