I keep seeing shorts of guys just using it without anyone’s consent, or even letting anyone know that they are being filmed.
It’s going to get worse
Literally just criminalize their use without a recording indicator light
“Ray-Ban Meta Creep”
Now we know what to call them anyway.
I’m glad I’ve not come across anyone wearing these shits.
> Ray-Ban Meta Creep
The term you’re looking for is glasshole.
The last time someone tried it with this much effort it led to people having their smart glasses snatched from their face to get stomped on and a discontinued product line. The world was better for it.
I wonder if long term this will do damage to the ray ban brand and this style of glasses.
When I was shopping for glasses for a few weeks ago the thought “I don’t want any glasses that make people think I could have a camera in them” passed through my head.
There was a similar reaction to camera phones when they first became a thing. There was a period of time people did not know they were a thing so you would hear on a regular basis of someone filming a women’s changing room etc with this new fangled camera phone. We all eventually got used to them and could spot when they were in use, with in a year or two everyone had one and no one cared anymore. That could happen here or we could have Google Glass 2.0. Hard to say at this point.
There’s a local menace going downtown to the bars and harassing women with those glasses and posting it online. So yes these glasses and the rayban brand are doing damage for sure.
Seeing people making money to disable the light is sad
“The Ray-Ban Meta Creep” is Zuckerberg
Interested to see if the perception shifts once Apple debuts their own smart glasses this year or next.
I wish this community allowed images because of [this](https://imgur.com/a/RvRNCTL) irony.
I don’t want some random dude taking a video of me pissing in a urinal.
People are already learning to clock these glasses. It will end just like the Google glasses ended. People hate creepers and perverts.
Ironically enough I got an ad for these very glasses under this post
We must keep shaming & calling this shit out of public. If we give up or normalize this then we’re toast
Glassholes
This term was coined for the google glass wearers, but I am using it here also.
I’ve only interacted with one person with them on and it creeped me out.
She didn’t even do anything weird. It was just weird knowing she had the ability to go back and rewatch our interaction plus the device being associated with Meta.
We were just with a group of people enjoying a neighborhood music festival in suburban Boston.
Like everything associated with Meta actually
Created by creep, so naturally a creep will want to use it.
We need to socially ostracize folks who buy these, weirdos
Time for wearable IR blasters to blind them.
We need better laws around privacy, being filmed in public, or using images and names in a public forum.
„You’ve read your last free article.“
No, you would have to actually let me read it first for that to be the case.
The pivot to partnering with Ray-Ban, as opposed to addressing the widespread consumer discomfort with the product, is another signal that big tech is willing move forward with their products even when they must rely on camoflage to circumvent privacy concerns.
They do not care about what we want. They only understand how to move in one direction.
