After reading this article I was super convinced and decided to click that “See Ray-Ban Meta at Amazon” at the end of it to make a purchase ;)
I’ve seen a few customers with these glasses. Unfortunately, since they’re an almighty CUSTOMER and I’m just a lowly wage slave, I can’t say or do anything.
Since these glasses were introduced, though, I’ve decided to boycott all ray-ban products, because I’m so incensed that they’re participating in this gross violation of human rights and social norms.
Whats the point of these glasses, anyway? Do people just think they are so interesting and important that they have to either record everything they do, or be ready to record everything at a moments notice? I haven’t had a picture taken of me since ~2010, so I don’t really understand these sorts of things.
I think people are starting to agree

Have we started hounding people we see walking around with this bullshit in public? You know, like back in the day when Google tried to pull this with Google Glas?
We should probably bring back the term glasshole
smart ass glassholes
I would be in favour of ray-banning every owner from public life.
Me to smart glasses owners: if you point your dystopian Facebook surveillance camera to my face, I’ll punch yours.
Fuck them. They did.
