I bet lawmakers will start to make laws forbidding hiding your identity from facial recognition sooner or later.
Facial recognition just ten to fifteen years ago could be fooled with something as simple as a bandaid on your face. Around that time they improved quite a bit, I believe a lot of these old wanted fugitives that were caught around that period may have been identified by facial recognition.
Same laws in South Korea. They can follow is on CCTV all day, but can’t use AI or facial recognition to do it. They have to manually go thru the footage
That's how the FBI / police used to (probably still do) get away with illegally wiretapping you. They set up fake cell sites to trick your phone into connecting to them then they collect evidence and then will use what they learn to get a warrant where they know they'll find something because they already illegally monitored you. The FBI was so desperate to not have to admit they were doing it that they were dropping charges against people who asked for information on their possessions of stingray devices in court rather than talking about it in an official capacity. I think it was called parallel construction, where they basically use illegally gotten evidence to find ways to get legal evidence then hide the illegal part that lead to it
