Can we start a trend of wearing ski masks and other face coverings in public?

Too late. I'm pretty sure it's already not allowed in many countries, including most of Europe.

They wanted to ban hijab/burka, but that would be discrimination, so they banned all face covers: ski masks, balaclavas, "V" plastic masks, motorcycle helmets when not driving one, everything.

Sounds miserable in summer. Let's start a trend of removing cameras from public spaces instead.
I saw food delivery couriers on scooters having a balaclava-style mask (only eyes visible).
...when driving.
Today I saw one who also had kind of snowboard goggles in addition to a mask.
