"Person wearing Meta Glasses is an instant red flag", fixed the headline

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

Wired passed on calling them "pervert glasses".

Cowards.

If you aren't an influencer or streamer, or whatever, what is going through your head when you do that? Do you want to relive a rejection?

I recently saw a story that claimed some guy wears the glasses as a form of protection from lying women.

I don't know if it's BS or not, but the fact that I can't tell, doesn't seem like a good thing for society.

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?

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.

They're called pervert glasses for a reason...

I am so glad that I never got into the whole thick rimmed glasses hype.

I wear Lindbergs as my daily driver

I blame Kent Brockman.

I am not sure to understand the concept of a date in the US. Is it something you do with the ones you fear? And why would men be affraid of a date with a woman? And how could filming some part of the date prove that there isn't an unfilmed (or erased) part with an aggression? How something as simple and beautifull as a date can become so complicated and scary?

I genuinely try to understand...
