Apparently being a paparazzo isn't completely recession proof - Introducing the newest privacy keeper: The ANTI-PAPARAZZI CLUTCH BAG. I found this patent-pending (2010) invention from a tinylink posted by lilyroseallen on Twitter.
This device, which fits inside a lady's clutch bag, and is in further development to become smaller - think pendent - was created by NYU Grad Adam Harvey in his Physical Computing class at NYU ITP. Its purpose is to counter the flash photography of a paparazzi's flash with another flash thereby rendering the photo unusable, no matter the number of pictures taken.
See it in action:
My thoughts? Bad news for the only thriving print media: gossip. Bad new for the Speidi's of the world. Good news for the privacy seeking Lily Allens and the sometimes Paparazzi-violent celebs like Brittany Spears, JT and Mel Gibson. And probably long-term good news for humanity.
