Call me conservative but I think that would still suck. A society where everyone has a camera on their nose pointing at you sounds absolutely dreadful.
Eh, you’re already on a dozen cameras every time you go outside. Security cameras, state surveillance cameras, doorbell cameras, cameras all over every modern car… What’s a few more?
There is already no expectation of privacy and anonymity anymore. Cameras are already everywhere, more and more of them interconnected and tracking your every step. If you want privacy and anonymity outside of your own home, you need to be wearing a mask, and maybe taking measures to disguise your gait and physical proportions as well. Having slightly more or slightly fewer cameras out there isn’t going to change that whatsoever.
No I don‘t because I don‘t live in an Orwellian hellhole (yet) like most people seem to do these days. Even if I did your comment is an admission of absolute capitulation. What a sad worldview.
Okay, then. I wish you the very best of luck in destroying every camera you see. Hopefully you’re wearing a mask and unidentifying clothes every time you go out.
Just gotta wait for people to write custom firmware for these things, it’s cool hardware but yeah I’m not going to run a Facebook OS on my own hardware
When I look at my game recordings, I can see my mistakes/places to improve.
If I see the steam overlay saying 150 minutes game time, its like “eh. Its long, but I had fun”. But if I see an over 2 hour clip of me not leaving my chair, that will make a bigger impact, reminding me how little I do every day
Who needs to video your day to torture yourself with minute details throughout each day, your brain can pull that info up any time it is inconvenient to you and run through it for hours
I thought smart glasses could be kind of neat, but no way in hell would I get a pair from Meta.
A set of FOSS smart glasses powered entirely by local hardware and software that you own and control? That would be kind of neat.
Anything connected to and under the control of a big corporation, though … miss me with that shit.

Ah yes. The fallacy of you’re already being exploited so what’s one more time?
Really, though – is that not true?

Yeah! Things are already bad. It’s so much simpler to let it get worse than trying to make things better!
Still doesn’t mean I should be okay with some meta glass hole filming me.

Doomism is not the solution
If you see a ring door bell, they aren’t hard to kick or rip off the wall.
Actually I’m going to make some informative stickers that happen to cover the camera and sensor of those things. I’ll post them when they’re up.
It is a bit more difficult, however, to do that without being caught, since they’ll probably have camera footage of you doing it.
Cops don’t track people down for porch pirating. They aren’t gonna look for a person in a mask kicking doorbells.
Lmk, I could def use them. I work in ppls houses in the US. I swear almost half the houses have cameras, 90% ring. It’s insane.
calls for vandalism of personal property. not good.
Okay, then. I wish you the very best of luck in destroying every camera you see. Hopefully you’re wearing a mask and unidentifying clothes every time you go out.

I won’t even use my 3d headset that they bought from oculus. it just sits there.
SteamFrame my beloved
We literally have no idea when that’s coming out…
I wish I can look back at my entire day and see what I did. (It will mostly just be computer, kitchen and bathroom only, but still a cool idea)
I usually use my memory when I want to look back on my entire day and know what I did.
Right? Such a great invention. Quality is not always great but huge storage capacity and amazing privacy protections. And its free!

Or you can just use your common sense and save yourself the cost of this ugly piece of junk.
People tend to avoid you less if you don’t look like a sneaky perv, so that’s another bonus.
Plus, you’ll not be funding Meta and you’ll have one less piece of rubbish in a drawer somewhere that needs recycling after one month of use.
I’m NEVER buying a Meta product. I’m just saying camera glasses is a cool idea. Shame that its tied being a terrible company.
And if you noticed, I only mentioned using it in my own home. Never out in public.

You’ll maybe reevaluate that position after watching this episode of Black Mirror.
Endlessly torturing yourself over minute details throughout each day doesn’t sound fun or healthy to me.
Well… Fuck
I’m glad I have the day off tomorrow cause now I need to process some stuff…
I’ve heard good things about the show, but that was my first episode I watched. Are they all this good?
