And bad journalism gets repeated: 'gait recognition' is fraud now, it was something until proved to be unreliable and easily defeated several years ago. nobody peddling gait recognition is taken seriously - it is almost a line in the sand for technical idiots trying to cash in, not actual members of the security industry, just tech opportunists.

Easily defeated if you make the effort. Do you want a world where we have to consciously change our gait to "easily defeat" the recognition AI? If not, then it should be banned too.
