Story about low priced Anko branded competitor to Meta smart glasses. The story author calls out that despite Meta’s attempts to prevent recording if the LED is covered, it is easy to get around the block. I think it’s good for mainstream press to say it, so more ppl realize. They also call out that human moderators at Meta review their smart glasses footage. Inc videos of people having sex or using the toilet.
IDK if public backlash will nix the market for these, or if opposition will dry up and in 10 more years they will be mainstream tech like smartphones are today. I could see it going either way TBH.
It scares me that one of those timelines leads to a hellscape worse than the one we already have.
Well shit if it helps you relax after reading that loony rant from the other day, there are some weird upsides to these gizmos and silicon valley isn’t the world leader in them. think about the benefits of instantaneous translation glasses!! all this augmented reality shit is about projecting unreality, but that’s not what’s going to make a difference imo. i dont need fucking entertainment i need THE VISION
