I would love if a group of hackers could reverse engineer the network connections used to send the data back to Meta and distribute software people could choose to run to flood Meta's "incoming pipe" with convincing nonsense, like how the Ad Nauseum ad blocker fakes random ad clicks to help destroy any attempts at ad profiling.

Like SETI@home but for spamming false info at the corporate surveillance assholes.

I mean agree but they are still making glasses without cameras, or did they stop?

Requires breaking up the eyeglass maker monopoly. Good luck storming the castle!

They're really not useless, though at this point maybe a little half-baked, since they're "ai-powered" and LLM's are very much half-baked.

They could, for an example, improve things greatly for people who can't see or hear; problem is they are so closely associated with creeps, and Meta is so incentivized to market to creepy people, that the positive possibilities for this kind of tech are an afterthought.

Are the sweatshops still in China?
