Hacker and fashion designer Kate Rose announced a new brand (Adversarial Fashion) during DEFCON27, a security event held in Las Vegas, USA from August 8-11. The brand is said to be able to deceive perceptions of local or government-installed surveillance systems with clothing and prevent personal identification from surveillance cameras.
When you look at this clothes, the same patterns are drawn on the license plate or circuit diagram. A surveillance camera, a security system, and an automated license plate reader (ALPR) that identifies the vehicle by automatically capturing the license plate by image recognition are installed. In addition to surveillance cameras installed on the street, ALPR also functions as a camera mounted on police vehicles. In fact, in the security system operated by the police, ALPR is said to be able to recognize license plates in milliseconds, up to 1,800 copies per minute.
Advances and dissemination of surveillance cameras and facial recognition technologies help to deter crime, but on the one hand, raise concerns over personal security and privacy. In fact, in response to this criticism, a special pattern was developed to prevent face recognition that can be printed on fabric.
The apparel presented by Kate Rose is a design with numerous license plate shapes. A person wearing clothes is a structure that makes the security system judge it as a vehicle. In fact, as a result of recognizing it with ALPR, one body identifies several license plates and recognizes a vehicle that does not exist there.
In the fourth Amendment to the U.S. Bill of Rights, there are also clothes printed on license plates stating that the rights of citizens to ensure the safety of bodies, houses, documents and property are not violated by unreasonable search and seizure. These clothes are also sold on the official website. T-shirts, skirts, hoodies, half tops, and jackets are on sale and range from $24.99 to $49.99. Related information can be found here .
