Just saw this on Maddowblog. You definitely need to look at it:
I find this concept disturbing in an “Uncanny Valley” sort of way. :eek:
YMMV
Spooky. I’d far rather see tassels or decorative beads; fashion, not something easily confused with the absence of a mask. If you simply must have a face, make it Guy Fawkes or Harley Quinn.
In another thread, I talked about masks. I was somewhat surprised at how much it bothered me that no one could see my facial expressions. I’m extroverted and I thought it hampered communication.
This is a really creepy solution, though. I would never do it.
Ugh. Reminds me of those Japanese burger wrappers with the elegantly closed ladies’ mouths printed on them:
I proposed awhile back that this might be mandatory, the new normal, so folks can’t disguise their identities from facial recognition systems. Wearing any other mask design is evidence of intent to evade justice. Book-em, Danno!
I like the ones with a window, for the sake of deaf people who need to read lips.
