    The ESPER LightCage 3D face scanning rig is a modern w:light stage. Avoid going into one of these and do not agree to anyone capturing your reflectance field
    Sunglasses or sun glasses (informally called shades) are a form of w:protective eyewear designed primarily to prevent bright w:sunlight and w:high-energy visible light from damaging or discomforting the eyes. (Wikipedia)

    Protect your appearance from covert modeling

    • Avoid uploading facial and full body photos and video of yourself to services where they are exposed to the whole Internet.
    • If you need to upload photos, wear protective accessories in the photos e.g. sunglasses, niqāb or burqa.
    • Do not agree to have your reflectance captured in a light stage.

    Protect your voice from covert modeling

    • Avoid uploading recordings of your w:human voice to services where they are exposed to the whole Internet.
    • Consider altering the voice of your recordings if you must upload to the Internet with a voice changer or synthetic voice that does not match any human's voice.
    • Avoid getting recorded by parties whose identity and reliability you cannot verify, especially if they do not expressly state how, where and for what purpose they will use the recording
    • Ask for a voice changer to be applied if getting recorded to something that will be publicly broadcast

    Ask your parliamentarians to make covert modeling a crime

    • Contact your representative and tell them to put this hyper-modern lawlessness to check. Ask them to consider criminalizing covert modeling and at least ask them to talk with colleagues and also publicly about the problems caused by covert modeling.
