I wear a cap, but I would like to invest in some reflectacles (https://www.reflectacles.com/#home), glasses that block facial mapping.

I have a baseball style cap with a ring of IR LEDS attached to a circuit and battery everytime I go around LAX https://www.instructables.com/id/The-Invisible-Face-Mask-/ https://odditymall.com/justice-caps-hide-your-face-from-surv...

By the time they get around to viewing the videos i am long gone. Just wear run of the mill clothes to blend in
