Fuck those glasses. But also, my brain can't let go of the question of "How would I feel if I saw a woman wearing these?". And honestly I'm not sure??? Like you could make an argument that at least they would deter creepy men?? Anyone got any thoughts on that?
Why would these deter creeps if all the existing surveillance measures and social pressure we already have is evidently ineffective? You're talking about the sort of people that have no problem posting highly inappropriate comments on women's instagram profiles under their own name.
And at the end this is still a Meta product, which is at least 50 percent of the problem with these glasses. It's not just some private device, all that footage gets sucked into some big cloud to serve who knows what clandestine purpose.

imagine being someone who just escaped a very violent situation and they need to stay safe and off the internet
then this shit happens
I was thinking about buying some for recording my kids' events like schools graduations, performances, etc. I just hate watching everything through my phone instead of them and thought this would give the best of both worlds. As it stands now I do a lot less recording so I don't "miss" it.
Now I'm thinking maybe I shouldn't.

Did they really think "yes, let's make Glasshole v2" and nobody gave it a second thought?
