For this digital camouflage technique to be most effective, meaning for cv Dazzle to render the subject either unrecognized or a false match, it is often a matter of contrast. Adam Harvey's cv Dazzle Look Book features mainly white-looking women with hair styled in dis-symmetrical ways that work to partially conceal their facial features and certain facial landmarks, like the space between the eyes. Harvey offers up\n\"style tips for reclaiming privacy\" and suggests that to decrease the possibilities of detection you should \"apply makeup that contrasts with your skin tone in unusual tones and directions: light colors on dark skin, dark colors on light skin.\" Makeup could be used not only to prevent recognition but to obscure skin texture analysis as well. These tactics, however, do not explicitly challenge the proliferation of ccTv and other computer vision technologies in public and private spaces, but rather leave it up to the individual to adapt.\nOne of the tasks of Dark Matters has been to situate the dark, black-ness, and the archive of slavery and its afterlife as a way to trouble and expand understandings of surveillance. Of course, some things are still left in the dark: the open secret that is the operation of black sites for rendition, torture, detention, and disappearance of people suspected as terroristic threats, or Edward Snowden's revelations in the summer of 2013 of the National Security Agency's warrantless wiretapping, a program representing what he called \"a dangerous normalization of governing in the dark.\" In the beginning of this book, I named dark sousveillance as a form of critique that centers black epistemologies of contending with surveillance, and I later looked to freedom acts such as escaping from enslavement by using falsified documents and aliases, or the Totau as celebratory resistance performed right under the surveillant gazes of white audiences, and Solange's critique of TSA searches as \"Discrim-FRO-nation\"",
