Maybe glueing aluminium foil to the clothing to spice up reflections can help.

    The end stage of leftist conspiracy theories vs libertarian ones again rears its head:

    "You're wearing tinfoil because you believe mole people are trying to microwave your semen with 5g. I'm wearing tinfoil because a public study released showing wifi can be used like sonar and it's literally not even a secret they just published the papers you can read it on a normal website. We're not the same."

    In 2020 my mom lived in a place where most people didn't mask, she said "If anyone gives me shit I'll say I'm doing it to block the government facial scanning technology." It's interesting that it's a legitimate reason to wear a mask all the time these days.

    probably dont even need it on the outside just do it around your torso under clothes or something, could probably sew it into a mask as well. theres likely a way to do this comfortably, sew it into a second shirt or something
