  6. The air around the user as not a hot spot of a heated human on the move/standing still that most computer guided detectors expect to find.
    When the devices are set to scan vast areas, that is human shape has to be expected and well documented. So the human using the detection is not needed to respond to every slight change in heat over hours and hours.
    That sets a detection level to an expected "hot" human, moving, not moving, trying to hide, using a blanket. Everything that is expected and calculated for.
    Move the heat is a different way around the human, and not in the shape of human and the computer supported detection system might just not alert.
    The "AI' only knows about all the hot humans it has seen. Not very different shapes that are not as hot as human.
    The computer system human use have to have a hot human walking, running, sitting to show up. The heat is still moving, just not in the big bight look at me pattern expected over the past decade.

    AC the systems and networks of public and private CCTV will track all people by their movement patterns.
    From a dwelling to transport. Using transport to a place of education, work. To find food. Back to education, work.
    Return to the dwelling. Gait and the story of a persons life will fill in the details.
    A person thats not allowing their face to be measured by CCTV in real time will fill in the missing details when they go to study, work.
    The transport they have registered and use. The dwelling to live at.

    One by one the people who are not easy to get an ID from using CCTV and a face will be tracked back over their day.
    The state and gov has all the time it needs given that so few people will be active in avoiding CCTV detection.

    Say a person who is not easy to ID walks back to a dwelling. Who owns the dwelling? Rent? No rent? Got some city permits?
    What bank accounts are listed from that dwelling? Any city, state, mil, federal ID in the past?
    Federal or state support payments?
    A dwelling with one person "registered" 10 people not registered walk in and out over 24 hours? Every day for months? Shift work?
    Patterns will be all a city, state, federal gov will need to play back the movements anyone who wont give a clear face for CCTV ID.
    Back to their RV, tent city, shared rented "dwelling".

    As a society move away from cash and to online banking links to a dwelling, rent, spending patterns can get more direct.
    Illegal migrants will have move around in CCTV areas to spend "cash". Illegal migrants have to then set up normal working bank accounts to stay hidden.
    Such bank accounts spending patterns and no CCTV of the person who resisted the account using that account then stand out.
    A different person using the CC, bank account all the time? The few people who don't get a face ID every time using a service?

    City has some permits to remove a dwelling and build a new dwelling.
    City puts up CCTV along that road.
    Every person on that road used for that project will get a face ID along that road.

    Try and hide and that person is tracked back.
    Any new offer of working for a day for "cash" become bait :)
    Think the FBI is the only police who can network a pole camera the night before a city permit is ready for a front company?

    Re "f active attacks are so detectable why are they allowed to happen? Why are they not "detected"? Did the attacker forget to set evil bit?"
    Once the crypto over wifi is working its working well and strong. Thats not the way in.
    The trick was that very first part when wifi had to talk for the first time to a new wifi communications attempt.
    The very first attempt at a reach out and before the start of encryption could be overpowered as to allow a third party to become part of that later "secure" wifi network.
    Keep trying, blocking and forcing both sides to restart the network setup negotiations and a third party might just be accepted. They are then part of the new wifi network. A way into a computer.

    The security products that are now gov to gov, telco, police and mil supporting are much better and at a lower cost than they used to be.
    Look at every packet in real time. Is it VPN? Tor? Look at the origin, destination in near real time. VPN, Tor use still stands out.
    The trick is for gov to follow their nations users to the destination computer networks. A simple request to that same network in near real time tells a gov/mil what the computer is doing eg Tor, VPN. Drop that connection and block all new connections to the now discovered network.
    Map out Tor in real time outside the nation and block it all.
    Another trick is to have a front company set up in the EU, USA and any other larger Tor supporting nation.
    Map out the network and sent the ip ranges to the mil/gov telco block in real time.
    Between a nations own users trying to reach out to Tor and tracking Tor use globally, usage in that one nation can be locked.
    The very need for a user to reach out to Tor and have Tor respond in a set way is the part to discover another attempt to use Tor.
    The only cost it the real time deep packet inspection and thats a security product most nations with a working telco network can install.
    Given the way telco peering works to international networks, its only a few domestic networks to watch over.
