π¨π¦ The internet is calling them 'pervert glasses.' Here's what Meta's smart glasses can actually do
The sharpest part is not the nickname. It is that Meta sold covert recording gear dressed up as ordinary sunglasses, then pretended a tiny white light was a privacy solution. Even the built-in warning can be bypassed, as reported. Translation: tech giants push surveillance toys into daily life first, then act shocked when creeps use them exactly as any sane person predicted.
And notice the regimeβs usual pattern. Ottawa has a Safe Social Media Act for policing online content, but the snippet says it does nothing about filming strangers in public. So the state is always ready to regulate speech, never ready to defend basic privacy before the damage is done. Meta gets to normalize a culture where everyone is a target, every public space becomes a content farm, and the clean-up is dumped on victims. This is what elite innovation looks like now: invasive garbage, sold as convenience, with the social costs downloaded onto everyone else.
