A Win for Technology
I have a son away at summer camp presently. He didn't want
to bother with contacts so decided to wear glasses. He doesn't
really like his glasses so we reinforced how important it was to wear them for his eyesight.
A couple of days after he got to camp we checked their website for
photos of our son. Within a few clicks we found him--sans glasses.
Busted!
A quick call to the camp director remedied the situation. Score one for the tyranny of parents and the power of the Internet.

For some reason, this post reminded me of this shot that I snapped in Budapest last time I was there:

Technology is definitely becoming an extremely powerful tool for enforcement. In this case, they simply used facial recognition software to identify agitators and round them up the following day.
The down side of your scenario is that now he'll do what my son does--he will avoid camera lenses as if they were the barrel of a gun.

Actually you are spot on. We are not seeing photos!
