| contents | This paper attempts to classify various blinding strategies used in particle physics. It argues that the blinding technique is not used consistently throughout searches for new physics. More importantly, the blinding technique, in its traditional sense, cannot be applicable for many current and future searches when statistical precision of data significantly exceeds the current level of our understanding of Standard Model (SM) backgrounds. |
