Meta said in a statement that privacy was top of mind when designing the glasses. “We know if we’re going to normalize smart glasses in everyday life, privacy has to come first and be integrated into everything we do,” the company said.
Ha.
I don't think Meta has the same idea of privacy than the people do. I mean, Meta having all the data hidden in their servers, being fed to AI and given to advertisement algorithms is privacy when the data is "anonymized" and held onto securely. Right?
No, privacy was their top priority - just not having it at all is the goal.

These things should be illegal
That's an easy fix. You see someone wearing them, you smash them. If it happens enough, people won't want them.
Yeah, get yourself arrested for assault! That'll show 'em!
Yeah, don't do that. It just makes you look like a dick.
thank god she had the Glass to record the incident!
Just make your own that have an insane number of IR LEDs on them.
I don't think that this catches on. However, the second this is included with lenses that act as transparent screens for AR stuff, it'll be flying off the shelves. No, not the very first model, not the second probably, but the one made by a large corporation that actually does it well.
Though tbh just the lenses / screens would do it, camera is just extra. So I actually think first they will get the lenses done and camera stuff ia added later when the rest is already commonly used.
How are you supposed to do AR without the camera? The computer has to know the environment it is supposed to augment. Even though if you mean recording doesn't have to be part of the camera I would agree.
I was more thinking of it being like a heads up display you know? It wouldn't be AR at that point sure, just a screen.
I don't really see a screen with a transparent background that is constantly in front of your face catching on unless it is used for AR.
I disagree, I'd get one if I could use it as a second monitor! Though if you can't navigate in the "screen", then it could be difficult. But yeah AR definitely would make things muuuch more interesting.
More alarmist bill crap. Just going to make sure the public never wants to hear another privacy article again.
Metas glasses aren't even particularly novel. They certainly ain't the end of privacy.
Where's the legally required recording light?
When the idiotic masses and paid influencers hop on board like they always do it will spur a bunch of companies to make similar and maybe one of them will be worth buying.
