In February, a Swedish newspaper reported that contractors in Kenya were reviewing Meta glasses footage without the wearer’s knowledge. The workers were made to watch uncensored videos of people going to the bathroom, getting undressed, and having s*x. Lots of the footage seemed to be taken without the wearer knowing they were recording. Then at the beginning of June, WIRED uncovered that Meta was quietly adding facial recognition technology for its smart glasses to every single iPhone. The feature, called “NameTag,” would identify people captured by the glasses and share information about them.

Honestly, it’s wild how much effort goes into making tracking look like a seamless fashion statement.

    I carry a roll of electrical tape

    Walmart, if I'm forced to use those shitty slave machine it gets tape.

    gas station? tape.

    debit machines with the camera facing the customer.. more tape

    if I see someone wearing these glasses, no tape.. they will be broken

    Meta is outta their minds. Does privacy even matter anymore?? People need to see this and stop buying these smart glasses.
