A New York subway rider has accused a woman of breaking his Meta smart glasses. She was later hailed as a hero.
Yeah I understand hating the Meta glasses, but what, are we going to destroy every camera we find in the wild? This is a small piece of a larger problem and I’m just not sure assaulting a stranger on the subway is the way to go about it.
are we going to destroy every camera we find in the wild?
Yes.
Yeah my first thought was “you know what? Now that you mention it, I’d be more than happy with that. I didn’t even think of it as an option but yeah, sure, let’s give it a go”
I’m all for this but we should start with all of the cameras owned by businesses and the government. If anyone at all should be allowed to record in public it is we the people.
Skibidi are the good guys?

If it is from a mega corp that is known for spying on people: absolutely
They have no right for cameras in public.

I’m pretty sure they do. That comes along with the word “public”. This sounds like ICE telling observers to stop filming.
Collecting the footage from thousands of cameras and turning it into a giant surveillance system to track everyone is a different matter, and that’s what needs to be made illegal.

If we normalize assaulting people that want to walk around with cameras on their face being creepy then less people will walk around doing that. Sometimes the solution is as simple as some minor violence.

Some cashier at McDonalds will probably rat her out Luigi-style.
like the google glass was used for porn as soon as it was released, and then shortly google stopped making them.
the entire internets life cycle has always been:
- new tech
- new porn delivery option
- widespread use of new tech
- profit
- repeat

Meta tells the people that buy these glasses that they “only record audio and video when you tell them to” but that turned out to be an absolute lie. It’s always looking, always listening, and people shouldn’t use these fuckin corpo people trackers and advertisement machines.
Yes, it’s only acceptable for the state to monitor people in public.
I don’t think either entities should be performing intrusive mass surveillance.
@VoidJuiceConcentrate@midwest.social @BrikoX@lemmy.zip listening, sure… just like all our phones and smart home speakers and watches tend to be these days… but what’s your evidence it is always looking? I don’t think that is currently the case but I certainly wouldn’t rule out them doing it in the future once it becomes less of an issue for the battery life of these.
my phone ain’t listening, but that’s cause I use grapheneos.
as for the evidence the glasses are always watching/listening

Oh no, god forbid someone records her in the most recorded state on earth.
