This "user choice" narrative falls apart when you realize the settings ship with cloud enabled by default and the terms of service are a wall of legalese nobody reads. Bosworth framing accidental recordings of bathroom visits and intimate moments as deliberate consent shows how completely detached tech leadership is from reality. Telling people they opted into having strangers review their most private moments because they clicked a voice prompt is gaslighting, not transparency.

Fuck you and your fucking ad for meta
Me to smart glasses owners: if you point your dystopian Facebook surveillance camera to my face, I'll punch yours.
I’ve seen a few customers with these glasses. Unfortunately, since they’re an almighty CUSTOMER and I’m just a lowly wage slave, I can’t say or do anything.
Since these glasses were introduced, though, I’ve decided to boycott all ray-ban products, because I’m so incensed that they’re participating in this gross violation of human rights and social norms.
Have we started hounding people we see walking around with this bullshit in public? You know, like back in the day when Google tried to pull this with Google Glas?
We should probably bring back the term glasshole
Are you serious?
A change.org with 51 signatures? I am usually not a cynical person, but there have never been any change.org petitions that have really changed anything.
Please stop with this online activism bullshit and go out into the real world and organize and actually do something.
