Camera Adversaria

Defend your photos from surveillance with adversarial filters

A camera app designed to disrupt the automatic surveillance of personal photographs by technology companies.

When you upload a photo to social media or back up your images on cloud storage they are probably being scanned by machine vision algorithms. Fortunately, these algorithms are fairly easy to confuse, at least for now. This app applies "adversarial" filters to your photographs which confuse machine vision systems but leave them looking mostly the same to you and your friends.
