'A Douchebag With a Camera on Your Face': Should Smart Glasses Record Imagery?

That quote is directed at Meta.

I wore Meta’s smartglasses for a month – and it left me feeling like a creep

Content creators love the built-in camera; sceptics call them ‘pervert glasses’. Do we really need any more hi-tech wearables, even with a voice assistant that sounds like Judi Dench?

Not just don’t buy Ray-Bans. Makers of creepy AI glasses for #glassholes. If you have ‘em don’t wear. Plenty of cool 😎 sunglasses out there.

How do you all feel about #SmartGlasses❓I can understand their usefulness in museums, historic sites, on hikes, even in meetings. But I tend to think folks who wear them in public places, on public transportation or in clubs are #Glassholes. I def don’t like the idea of being recorded without my knowledge or permission, nor the indisputable fact that some vendor or third party will have access to images of me or my family. #privacy #surveillance #consent

I rather like the idea that people are calling #Meta #RayBans “Pervert Glasses”!

There is really no reason for them to exist, except for people who are visually impaired to navigate their environment.
