New: this app warns you if someone is wearing smart glasses nearby.

Meta plans to add facial recognition to its Ray-Ban smart glasses. A 404 Media reader made this app after we showed men filming people w/o their consent, and DHS officials were wearing the glasses https://www.404media.co/this-app-warns-you-if-someone-is-wearing-smart-glasses-nearby/

@josephcox
I propose to rename the app to “Nearby Glassholes”.

@josephcox reminder that #google is also banning non "verified" apps from being added to the Play store this year, which means anything they don't agree with.

@josephcox couldn't see the name of the app without signing up. Does anyone know if it's on f-droid?

@Borscht @josephcox afaik the app is called 'Nearby Glasses'

@josephcox What we need is an app that tells us if someone is wearing smart glasses by making them burst into flames
