If you keep a coin in your shoe everywhere you go then you will have the same gait regardless, everywhere you go.
Take the coin out when you're doing sneaky shit.
The purpose is not to avoid profiling while doing "sneaky shit". I don't do "sneaky shit". The point is to avoid being profiled.
Then learn to walk without rhythm
But what if I still want to attract the worm, while still foiling gait recognition technology?
Probably stock up on shoes with different sole & treadhight. Flipflops one day, combat boots the next. Or identical shoes with different amounts of wear on the bottom, vary your leg height & you'll adjust your posture to compensate. Might be able to get away with just carrying really heavy shit in only one of your pockets. Anything sensitive enough to track small signifiers in stride length & foot pronation would hopefully be easy to juke by that same sensitivity.
