In 2018 it was already common knowledge that gait analysis was more accurate than facial recognition at the time. This would have been defeatable then.

Gait recognition is also easier to defeat. All you need is to put something like a few pebbles or coins in one of your shoes

I think dazzle camouflage is best understood as having limited scope of application as pertains to face recognition. It shouldn't be regarded as failing within its intended scope on account of gait analysis. Everyone knows you have to learn the juggalo dance moves to go along with the face paint.

How are everyone's gaits being collected? Is there gait databases at the NSA? Not being skeptical! Honestly very interesting.
