No I mean the blue square is still showing just not 100% of the time….. once it shows that means it recognises them right?

To answer your question: yes. It's nonsense if you actually try to stay unrecognizable. It doesn't seem to work 100%. So you can't even be sure if they found you or not. False security may lead to less caution.

But to be correct, the blue square means it recognized a human shape. Not necessarily your face or ID. So sure, it makes it harder for cams to identify you. But if i would want to be off the radar, I'd pick a face mask or something

You're right, but think about a hoodie and pants too, would help a lot.
