If algorithms continue to be confused by patterns painted over one's face, isn't it inevitable that eventually a lot of people will be openly wearing this in the street? I was punk rock, and we walked down the street looking even worse.
edit: also, it's a bit New Romantic/Gothy, although that effect might lessen with better, easier-to-form distraction patterns.

This would make a great captcha. Show users images of people wearing that makeup and hair style mixed with other similar images and tell them to select people from ramdom images.
I always thought a good way to build a captcha would be to use the "Uncanny valley" and the great ability humans have for detecting artifacts to create captchas. For instance, show photographs and very realistic paintings of people and make the user to tell them apart. Another example would be to use a photograph and insert somthing drawn by hand in it.
Is this already done? These things are trivial for humans but I doubt computers can do that.
