@phire
Regulation must be introduced globally, that anyone wearing these glasses MUST wear a dayglo pink burqa with the word 'recording' emblazoned in 50cm Arial Black front & back and an amplified voice warning in the local language, saying 'DANGER, META OVERSTEPPING!"@phire
I'm prepared to compromise on the burqa. An over the head internally mirrored goldfish bowl, with a live stream of loud thrash metal, would be an acceptable mandatory substitute! -

@phire is anyone really surprised at this point (I mean, aside from anyone stupid enough to own these and then clutch their pearls when they find out)?

@phire What's most baffling to me is that this is even remotely unexpected to anyone whatsoever.
At this point the *only* sensible expectation is that the fascist tech giants will pull *every* *single* *bit* of nasty business they can get away with.
Things are gonna start getting better when people at large accept the fact that the billionaires are our *enemy* and the institutions we put in place to keep them in check have failed.
It's up to all of us to defend ourselves.
@renardboy @phire internet connected camera -> someone is looking at it. there's no other reasonable expectation.

Today, digital human rights group Fight for the Future is issuing a safety advisory urging family-friendly businesses, schools, hospitals, community centers and places of worship to ban the facial recognition glasses Meta manufactures in partnership with Ray-Ban.

@phire
If they bought a pair of smart glasses from Meta, Amazon, Google, or Microsoft in 2026, they should have absolutely expected this. I have no sympathy. -
