Fooling Flock: The Car Wrap That Blinds Plate Cameras

SYAC: no pictures of the actual vehicle in this article, just stock images of Flock cameras. How incompetent of a journalist do you have to be to fail to include a picture of the thing your article is about?

Here is an article that actually shows the wrap on the car:

It looks like this:

And here is a link to the mentioned Kickstarter campaign, which the Yahoo article also fails to provide:

The campaign doesn’t mention the car at all, which is a little odd. You’d think they’d be using the media attention.

I also want to share a link to a previous post about this project:

My opinion is still the same as in that discussion - I don’t think a static pattern is going to be effective for very long.

They’ll call it Car Camouflage and tell MAGA it’s for terrorists or something I bet
