'Although they are still fringe tech, concerns about privacy are mounting, amid reports of users covertly recording in public. Last month, journalists in Sweden found that moderators employed by Meta review intimate footage from the glasses, including of people using the toilet and having sex.'

Cindy Cohn, from #eff @eff, nails it really well in this interview about how one can combine public #safety , #privacy and #freedomofspeech in capitalistic societies shaped by technologies, which are themselves controlled by politically-toxic oligopoles, with #johnstewart. #socialplatforms #gafam #surveillancecapitalism
