It should abandon its plans. https://www.eff.org/deeplinks/2026/02/seven-billion-reasons-facebook-abandon-its-face-recognition-plans

          @eff
          Meta glasses, trained to recognize other Meta glasses, and fire a jet of wallpaper paste at them, seems like a good idea.

          If there's escalation, then there's always high power lasers. Meta users as collateral damage may just have to be the price we'll pay

          (for the record, this is a joke, not a plan)
