I came across https://www.reflectacles.com/. I'm not sure if this type of gear is effective. Does anyone have experience or feedback on useful equipment for mitigating scanning in public spaces?

I've heard that most commercial ID uses infrared and tracks your eyes, so this should do a good job against those systems, even in bright spaces. It won't help for visible light cameras, just auto ID detection.

Ah right, that could be. No expert on commercial systems tbh.
