The wearable tech was unveiled by Mark Zuckerberg Wednesday at the 2023 Meta Connect conference in Menlo Park, California, sparking a frenzy online.

    Have you never been to a city? You’re literally being filmed all the time.

    If you can get things changed, I will send you $20

      Exactly what happened to Google Glass will happen to this thing so it doesn’t matter. It’s never going to get off the ground because most people don’t like having cameras pointed at them before they’re even asked. Just because cities are putting up cameras all over the place doesn’t mean the public accepts them.

        I’m not saying these will take off in any meaningful way, but I wouldn’t be so sure the backlash will be as hard. Attitudes seem to have changed to be less concerned about privacy over time.
