Do we have a good solution for public survaillence cams and Facial Recognition yet? (lemmy.dbzer0.com)

So I had researched it a while ago and don't recall having found anything effective and non-suspicious to protect from public camera mass survaillence in cities and the like. Is there anything that is a good option for that yet, and if so, could you point me toward it?

As an unrelated question, why do you use Andi instead of other privacy centric AI such as Duck.ai, Lumo, Brave AI, etc? I'm not familiar with Andi so I'm curious.

Because Andi is until now the most privacy centric and reliable one of all I've tested since almost 3 years, it was the first ever search AI on the market, 5 Years ago, former called Lazyweb.ai, years before. Own LLM not biased by big companies. Developed by a small startup of 2 devs.

Statement:

....We're a small team of two founders (Angela and Jed) and some friends. We're on a mission to unbreak the Internet and save the world from spam, misinformation and ad tech.

Search is broken because of misinformation, SEO spam and ads, and surveillance capitalism. It hasn't changed in 20 years. Things are getting worse. The rise of GPT-based chatbots that confidently generate accurate-sounding "BS" with made-up sources is driving misinformation through the roof.
