≥ she appears to be the only public figure in Western Europe with no photo on the internet. Indeed the average proprietor of a rural car wash has left more evidence of their existence and life history on the internet than Vanessa Baraitser. Which is no crime on her part, but I suspect the expunging is not achieved without considerable effort
You can't always control that. Are you at a conference? Someone's making pictures? Woops. Plus, if you visit a large city, chances are there's security cameras everywhere.
Increasingly conferences are sensitive to this and provide some mechanism to signal that photographs are unwelcome.
The IETF began using coloured lanyards, if you picked the special colour this was a signal to not record your presence at the in-person event where practical. When they first began doing this somebody key (maybe a Working Group chair or Area Director? Anyway someone who'd obviously be on camera all the time so that not recording them is hopeless) picked that colour because they liked it, and then only realised later why everybody was freaking out. Amusing.

I noticed this too, and the authors snide comments around it don't add to the main message.
I envy the judge and others who can pull this feat off.

Hardly the same as temperance with online presence
Best we've got so far:
