They better invest in frame designs too cause as soon as they're recognizable they're gonna get slapped off faces real quick

- thewebguyd 7mo agoMaybe we'll see the revival of the term "glasshole"
- jim33442 7mo agoThe Google glasses were asking to be bullied, but the Meta ones are cooler looking
- hackyhacky 7mo agoNew makeup, old pig
- quantified 7mo agoWe are seeing it. Everyone can help by using it.
- pesus 7mo agoSometimes analog solutions are the most effective against digital problems.
- hdjrudni 7mo agoYou mean record onto tape?

- DonHopkins 7mo agoBut the hand is composed of digits. You could start by pointing at them and laughing, then flipping them off, then holding your hand up to their face so they can talk to it.
- hightrix 7mo agoAre there any less obviously aggressive tactics we can use? Wear something that is blinding to the cameras, or something else to obfuscate?
- pluc 7mo agoSlapping a pair of glasses that are recording you, processing your face, sending biometrics and images back to one of the worst privacy offenders on the planet off of the face of someone who is willingly doing all that without asking your permission is a perfectly appropriate reaction. Put your shoulder into it. I'd rather we normalize that than adversarial fashion.. but that's probably what you were looking for.
- hightrix 7mo agoWhile I'd like to agree with you, and do in some cases, there are many cases where this just isn't a feasible approach. For example, a peer coworker has a pair of these. I just don't interact with her while she is wearing them. If my boss were to get a pair there is no way I can justify slapping them off his face.
- miki123211 7mo agoThey're incredibly popular in the blind community, and for good reason. I think even the political activists will be extremely divided on this one. You have privacy on one hand, accessibility and a genuinely life-changing technology on the other.
- tartoran 7mo agoDo blind people not care about data privacy? Most likely they do and should ask for good TOS now while still possible.
- lynx97 7mo agoBlind user here. Reality is, we are so disadvantaged in this world that we will gladly accept any tool that is useful. Almost nobody would ever read the TOS. Its a bit like with cars... Sure, there are some urban exceptions, but truth is, if you ask someone to give up their car, they will laugh you out the door.
- nanobuilds 7mo agoThe long term goal might indeed be unrecognizable designs. Perhaps augmented reality contact lens. It will take a long time but people tend to slowly get used to giving more and more of their privacy away. Mojo Vision made a prototype of this. It's more the display but you can imagine the camera being somewhere else and streaming to the lens in an unobstructed way.
- testbjjl 7mo agoWhile I don’t disagree, with the sentiment, is this not incitement of violence?
- yunnpp 7mo agoYes. The company is inciting violent behaviour with socially disturbing products.
- testbjjl 7mo agoThe company is inciting violence. This can be said of anything. Violence is a choice, self defense is a right. Your “look what you made me do” defense might not go as you planned and feel like the wrong move when your rage dissolves. I remember when this place had fewer broken windows. Seems it’s becoming a ghetto.
- sershe 7mo agoI'm not the kind of person to wear those, but if I was and someone tried to slap them off me I might feel really threatened if you catch my drift. And since I won't be able to see too well, it will take some extra effort... Was that remaining movement the next punch, or death throes? Can't see too well, better safe than sorry!
