I blame Kent Brockman.

My mother bought me some sunglasses with a small built-in camera back in the 2010s. She got them mainly so I could record myself when I was skateboarding, which I thought was a super cool use case for them. But even back then, I felt weird about wearing them in public so they sat in my bedroom unused. Even as a dumb 19 year old, I could see how it was weird and could make people uncomfortable. I don't understand how we've gotten to a point in society where nobody gives even a shred of consideration to other people's personal space and privacy, and why the people wearing Meta Glasses don't feel like complete creeps.

Thank you, I wasn't the person you were originally replying too and honestly just didn't know what you were driving at, but that really does connect the dots.

Personally the idea of third-party to hold people accountable is something i am in favor in general. "Honor" societies sound and look miserable to me, with constant need for displays of power and dominance just to avoid brutality and the idea of justice being an impartial actor is a good thing to me. I do not trust the State currently to be that at the interpersonal level or Meta (or any for profit corporation) so they can't be a good impartial judge needed. So I think any person of any gender assigning them to be so like this is a bad idea, though maybe private storage might be acceptable? I still find that level of distrust for interpersonal relationship sad.

I have and expect most women do, use a message location tracking shared with friends when meeting a stranger in a private or intimate way, so we am closer to that path than I really thought of before.

Wifi is a bad protocol for smart home stuff for several reasons, and telemetry is only part of that.

How about a laptop that doesn't support fascist weirdos?

Always pick the bear.

But you don't understand, being falsely accused of rape is much, much worse than actually being raped! They HAVE to wear these glasses to protect themselves from women! /s

Justifying that men should wear these glasses in order to avoid a false accusation of sexual assault sure is something you can do.

Since rape and sexual assault happen at much, much higher frequencies, wouldn't it make more sense to push that women should be wearing these glasses everywhere?

The sun rises in the east and sets in the west. We now know two facts.

I really like to know what the point of wearing glasses on a date is supposed to even be? Is the whole point that you want this person to like you, how much recording them going to help you with that?

Or is that too logical of a question?

77 million flock cameras with legs.

Would you rather go on a date with a man wearing Meta glasses or go on a date with a bear wearing Meta glasses?

Rape and sexual assault occurr more often than fake accusations.

This is a factually true statement regardless of how anyone feels about it.

Survivors rarely make false reports about sexual assault. Only 6% of sexual assaults are reported to the police. And false accusations of sexual assault happen no more than false reports of other types of crime: about 2% to 4%, which means 96% to 98% of the reports are true.

Maybe a repo would be better?

How would that even work? Wouldn't they have to film the entire intercourse which would be straight out illegal? Because I assume we're talking about false rape allegations, not lying about their hobbies or something. Sounds like a bad excuse to gather dirt and bully someone later.

I could see that unfortunately. I've had the unfortunate luck to meet people (both men and women but more women) that to call snakes would be an insult to the snake.

On a date though? Listen, keep an open mind, and cut bait if they do something that betrays your comfort zone. Avoid compromising situations, you don't know them, that's why it's a date. No matter what you have to open up and trust just a little, and recording for legal and training purposes just ain't that.

So imho, as a person that absolutely understands wanting help with social interactions and dealing with trust issues, I don't believe 99% men saying this is the reason they need the perve glasses on.

What were you saying then? I also don't see another interpretation tbh

Excellent, thanks!

Those who are not repulsed by the idea of using products from the creators of Facebook known for privacy infringement is a red flag.

A Youtuber says? Well, we better take note of this attention-worthy event.

I never said they don’t matter. Work on your reading comprehension.

"X suffers more so Y issues don't matter."

Be better.

If all these men are claiming all these women are out to get them and make false statements, they would have already been using every tool available, hence they would have been wearing some form of body cam prior to this. They are simply saying it now, because it's way more discreet to use these glasses and potentially use them for other purposes.

If you are using cameras for some kind of defense, you make them loud and proud, not super discreet. They are designed to be a visual deterrent so the possible crime is less likely to happen in the first place.

isn’t that uncommon.

More uncommon than rape and sexual assault.
