Confirmed: My new #Zenni glasses, with their Infrared filtering, do indeed fuck with facial recognition.

Very cool!!!!!

Poor ICEe folks' little scanners.

Zenni’s Anti-Facial Recognition #Glasses are #Eyewear for Our #Paranoid Age

Zenni, an online glasses store, is offering a new coating for its lenses that the company says will protect people from #FacialRecognition technology. #Zenni calls it ID Guard and it works by adding a pink sheen to the surface of the glasses that reflects the infrared light used by some facial recognition cameras.

Zenni’s Anti-Facial Recognition Glasses are Eyewear for Our Paranoid Age

These anti-facial recognition glasses technically work, but won’t save you from our surveillance dystopia.

This is pretty great if it works: Zenni Optical can add a privacy coating to their lenses to prevent facial recognition data collection/tracking.

From their site:

“Built-In Privacy
Proprietary pink sheen coating reflects infrared light to disrupt unwanted tracking—upgrade any lens.
Our proprietary anti-infrared coating offers up to 80% more near-infrared protection than standard lenses, helping disrupt unwanted facial tracking. That subtle pink sheen? It’s the visible signal of invisible protection. Plus, it reduces glare, resists scratches, and defends against the sun’s infrared rays for added comfort and clarity.”

@bnys I never heard of #zenni thanks!

If Zenni Optical could stop fucking retiring my glasses frames, I would be thrilled. Every few years. This really sucks.

After this #email I might never order from #zenni again.

Money saving advice to anyone who uses #zenni #zennioptical especially those that have high prescriptions. The recommended Index is not required. You'll hear a lot of talk about how the glasses will be too thick and that's just an outright lie. One of my eyes is -6.25 and the difference between the opposite ends of lens index is negligible.

Save yourself the pain and just go with the half price option and while you're at it skip the crazy blue light filtering and other add-ons that don't do anything for your eyes but confuse your color perception.

Guess that’s the end of Zenni Optical from Chile.

Someone bought glasses, and after retrying the order again (by them), none was delivered. At least they refunded the order.

After 4 months, they’re magically appeared to be delivered locally.

Blame #DirectLink, now #PostNord, offices in #Singapore. This shit is laughable.

Trying out ordering #glasses online for the first time. Got them off #zenni for less than half of what I was quoted at the optometrist. Usually I like to try the frames on, but it's #FSA money burning time so let's go
