    The more thinking you offload to a networked processor, the less you do for yourself.

    Imagine wearing one in a voting booth.

          > threat surface, ... their wearers.
          Nope. Wearers will be paid for wearing by immunity. We will call them Smiths.

              @aram Just read on another platform that a professor built an app that detects Meta's Ray-Bans nearby using Bluetooth. Your phone vibrates: "Smart Glasses are probably nearby."

              It's free & open source with zero ads. Detects within 50 feet outdoors. 32 feet in a crowd.

                @dbattistella @aram it is, apparently, legal to interfere with bluetooth signals due to it being unregulated spectrum

                At least in the US, other countries check before attempting please
