        I’ve done it. Recently. Walked up with my palm covering the camera so it didn’t see me while I approached, stepped to the side of it once I could, said I opt out, and went through.

        You idiot. I said in my post “decline at the airport” - meaning decline when the TSA asks to do it at airport security Not when ICE tries to take picture on a street
