I don’t like the Meta camera glasses because the feeds go directly to a company who have every incentive to spy on the footage and sell the results to whoever can clear an ACH transaction.
The creepiness is that Meta sees everything that is recorded. We already live in a world where everyone carries multiple cameras at all times, having a new class of wearable won’t appreciably change that.
On the other hand, having a device that you can root and change the system image means a lot for privacy. You’re not required to share every picture and video with Zuckerberg.
Creepy people are going to be creepy regardless. Condemning an entire category of wearable because a tiny portion of the population will misuse them doesn’t make much sense to me. It’s like governments trying to ban GrapheneOS because some people use it for criminal purposes.
