(Hope Schreiber) There are plenty of people who have fears about facial recognition, even though it recently helped authorities identify the Capital Gazette shooting suspect.

The technology can be inaccurate, and those inaccuracies affect minorities much more often than white males. Also, facial recognition may not even be legal, and its use raises concerns about violating civil rights, like when it was used to monitor protesters in Maryland. People who fear a future where Big Brother is always watching won’t be comforted to know that China already utilizes this type of technology for mass surveillance.

However, you can avoid such surveillance by doing this: Become a juggalo or a juggalette.

The way to truly stick it to the man has been in front of us this whole time!

Fans of the rap group Insane Clown Posse, who are known as juggalos and juggalettes, often paint their faces to mimic the members of the band, Violent J and Shaggy 2 Dope. One Twitter user, @tahkion, a computer science blogger for WonderHowTo, has discovered that makeup is the foil to facial recognition technology.

Facial recognition works by the technology’s ability to pinpoint specific areas of contrast on the human face, like where a person’s eyes or nose are. However, juggalo makeup involves black paint below the mouth and covering the chin.

Although Insane Clown Posse may not know how magnets work, they’re probably more than thrilled that magnets are throwing off computer learning algorithms.

That said, juggalo makeup is not perfect protection against all facial recognition technologies. According to the Outline, Apple’s Face ID doesn’t rely on visible light and instead uses depth perception — so the new black chin you just panted on yourself won’t protect you from almighty Apple.

Most Insane Clown Posse fans save their makeup for concerts, but maybe this will start a new fashion trend?

What is our mission? Why do we post what we do?

Our mission here is to curate (share) articles and information that we feel is important for the evolution of consciousness. Most of that information is written or produced by other people and organizations, which means it does not represent our views or opinions as managing staff of Stillness in the Storm. Some of the content is written by one of our writers and is clearly marked accordingly. Just because we share a CNN story that speaks badly about the President doesn’t mean we’re promoting anti-POTUS views. We’re reporting on the fact as it was reported, and that this event is important for us to know so we can better contend with the challenges of gaining freedom and prosperity. Similarly, just because we share a pro/anti-[insert issue or topic] content, such as a pro-second amendment piece or an anti-military video doesn’t mean we endorse what is said. Again, information is shared on this site for the purpose of evolving consciousness. In our opinion, consciousness evolves through the process of accumulating knowledge of the truth and contemplating that knowledge to distill wisdom and improve life by discovering and incorporating holistic values. Thus, sharing information from many different sources, with many different perspectives is the best way to maximize evolution. What’s more, the mastery of mind and discernment doesn’t occur in a vacuum, it is much like the immune system, it needs regular exposure to new things to stay healthy and strong. If you have any questions as to our mission or methods please reach out to us at [email protected].
