It was the first thing I thought of when I saw these glasses: 100% perverts are going to buy them.
Perverts and predators. I fully expect to hear about stalking and murder rates going up due to these-- and hopefully the makers will be sued out of fucking existence.
there's already a booming market for disabling the recording light.
The one good use I’ve seen: member of my fam has been deaf since childhood and recently got glasses that transcribe conversations
As someone hard of hearing with an auditory processing disorder that is my main temptation. My hearing aids work too well for me to spend the money at the moment though
Embarassing it was ever anything besides 'pervert glasses'
The problem is that influencers are already way ahead of you. Lots of normalizing them for "content creation" when they want to film in public. And if they had a sponsorship in a different video? Coincidence.
You can wear them if you have a blind cane and the lenses are blacked out.
I think there’s real value as an accessibility device for something like this. But not from Meta.
I assume the engineers that build these products are perverts themselves. Who else would take a job building such a thing?
I think the tech comes from VR headsets.
You know what sucks is I wear heavy framed Ray-Bans that have no camera. Now I could get lumped in w/ these chomo's... Fucking hell.
I guess its back to wire frames that can't handle any abuse...
I got new glasses recently, and chose thin frames for this reason.
It really sucks that we have to think this way...
If you're not blind or deaf it's gonna get mighty expensive standing in front of me with that shit on.
I was hoping pedo glasses would catch on as a term but I can settle for this.
