At the same time, there is an article about "Hong Kong protesters shooting lasers to thwart Chinese facial recognition tech"

I wonder if it's coincidence

View on HN

There's dozens of anti-China articles daily. Very good chance it is, the gfw is a mysterious beast that I doubt even the regulators truly understand.

One could argue that articles critical of the Chinese government are _pro_-China rather than anti-China.

That is complete nonsense.

I haven't seen any anti-China articles on HN. There have been news articles that threw light on how people from Hong Kong and mainland China suffer under the communist government of mainland China.

I heard of a technique to wear shirts with faces on them to throw off the detection.

A dangerous game - if they save the footage, they can re-examine it with improved facial recognition later.

Should be easy to fix for them with pose estimation or something.
