The data from your Meta Ray Bans is used to train Meta's AI, which most people don't understand means that humans are looking at the most intimate details of their lives.

Is it wrong I miss the days of people getting attacked for wearing google glasses?

@evacide Where does my dad keep his Meta Ray-Bans when he's not using them? (rhetorical)

I want to fucking smash them with a sledgehammer.

@evacide Now I just want to carry an RF noise generator in a pocket, whenever I go out in public.

Isn't it strange that corporations that are actively trying to end all civil rights to privacy, up to & including creepy "Bedrooms & Bathrooms" voyeurism...

...yet refuse to disclose who they finance in a fascist movement
Dark Money is killing democracy

...yet refuse to acknowledge their complicity in the Epstein Files

...yet refuse to divulge their contact with foreign despots

...yet decline to release internal memos about teen suicidal ideation

... yet hide investors identities

@evacide everything #Fuckerberg touches, gets ruined and sold to even worse folks.

@evacide Great! Two more companies that I never did any business with have just made pretty darn sure that I never will. The list is getting longer, choices in life simplify.

@evacide Panopticon. This data will be used by an authoritarian government against it’s people before you know it!

@evacide Grab them by the glasses.

@KatS Goed idee. @evacide

[fossthought@mastodon.social]

@evacide I'm sick of their "you're in control of what data you share" line. No you're not. It's proprietary software. You have no idea what's going on under the hood. All they did was code up some graphics that show options as "off." It still sends everything.

@KatS @evacide Hmmmm… is there a small version of such a device and would that be legal?

[calbaker@fosstodon.org]

@evacide

I have a coworker who wears these. I feel like he shouldn't be allowed to ever look at me now.

[synec@messydesk.social]

@evacide The thing I really want to know about the Meta Ray Bans is: "Will It Blend?" It would be delightful to get the video from the glasses as they're lowered into the Blendtec and see it abruptly cut off as the mechanized whirring starts.

@evacide Just as a matter of interest, the illegal gold miners in South Africa and Zimbabwe are referred to a zama zamas.

@JimmyB

explicit consent is probably/most-definitely included in the T&C's of the glasses themselves - you turn them on, you consent.

GDPR only covers things others own with respect to you.

store loyalty cards even confer consent to the store that you signed up to.

don't sign up.

@calbaker

from a non-disclosure perspective, something you and your co-worker are both likely legally bound to with your employer through your employment contract, is a route you can try with your employer.

your coworker is potentially transmitting confidential material outside the company. this is bad for privately held companies, but outright illegal for publicly traded companies
as this could lead to securities violations (insider trading)
