Is there any definable social group that they won't put at risk?
rich, white males
Well, they’re going to be easier to identify with their meta glasses.
Don't underestimate the number of people who will intentionally skip meals to save for these, like iPhones, Gucci, LV...
Maybe.
I wouldn't count on it, though.
People only care about invasions of privacy when it affects women, apparently.
And for some reason they'll get really upset when I point that out...
Every single aspect of our lives are being taken over by ethically bankrupt billionaires that will never in a million years face consequences.
It’s so exhausting that every single day the rich and powerful are infiltrating hobbies like gaming, tech, media, etc, and are actively making them all worse because there is no accountability whatsoever for these rich fucks and the people in positions of power who they bribe
Obvious solution is to abandon Meta completely.
Meta, stalking women since college.
I remember when some students did a PoC of this to showcase the dangers of the glasses, and Meta replied like "why are we to blame, it would have worked the same with any camera". Well, any other camera doesn't look like a regular pair of glasses motherfucker.

Same guys are buying shoe cameras for upskirt shots on trains.
jokes on them.
I got a dick.
The someone else would have invented the bomb argument! Yeah, but you didn't have to invent the privacy invasive thing you dingus! Not you you, them you.
Ugghh I hate this timeline.

Not what I was referencing but terrifying thanks!
Wesley Dingus. Hero of pervs.
No! 🫨
No whaaaAaa? Noooo!
"But trans women with penises!"
Everyone is at risk. I once saw screenshot from X of image of little girl with dog with comment asking "Grok, make them naked". I'm so glad I didn't see the Grok's reply. I wonder why some popular people are still on X. Meta smart glasses could probably make the same thing if they were jailbreaked. 10 years ago there was only scam ads of these products in newspapers. Now we live in dystopia where it is true.
Because their own need for attention is greater than the concern they may have about enabling chid pornography, the dissemination of conspiracy theories or and/or Nazi propaganda
This shit is horrifying for absolutely everyone, another reason im thankful I've kept my social media profile to a complete minimum.
The times, when it is easier to generate forbidden content than to film/create it, have finally come. Our world is so much cooked that some global disaster would be a God's mercy, not a punishment.
Only one way to normalize stuff....
i detest the direction smart wearables are going :(
I gotta put little fake lenses on my glasses do I can ride the fad!...oh it's done. Boy that was quick! I gotta get all these stickers off my glasses before someone punches me in the face for having to correct my eyesight.
I'm not sure why these glasses get the hate for this. It'll be available with any camera hooked up to ai search tools.
Cameras shouldn't be hooked to ai
Because they are hooked up to AI search tools probably
But this camera is hidden so creeps can follow women.
First of all, fuck META and fuck spyware.
That being said, as someone with a neurological disorder that makes it difficult or impossible for me to recognize people, the benefits of a piece of software that could tell me someone name WHEN THEY HAVE ALREADY GIVEN IT TO ME would be so beneficial.
A lot of people don't realize how impossible it is to form attachments to people when I have to meet them a dozen times to remember that they exist.
Open Source already did this years ago, except it wasn't creepy nor privacy invasive.
My issue is with facial recognition, maybe I didn't do enough to clarify. Unless I'm misunderstanding, you have to put information into that but I don't have that information.
It's like a stranger walking up to you on the street and trying to interact with you. Not very comfortable. But then as they speak, you recognize their voice and their body language and you suddenly realize it's one of your good friends. The issue is that I would like to be able to realize that's my good friend when everyone else would normally be able to.
