Meta’s AI-powered Ray-Bans have a discreet camera on the front, for taking photos not just when you ask them to, but also when their AI features trigger it with certain keywords such as “look.” That means the smart glasses collect a ton of photos, both deliberately taken and otherwise. But the company won’t commit to keeping these images private.

    Let’s be honest. The company won’t admit to it, but of COURSE they are.

    Remember, Facebook was founded on the premise of invading your privacy, and have gotten worse ever since. They’re not suddenly going to stop for any reason.

      Let’s not also forget that Zuckerfuck stole facebook. He was hired to finish a project, and lied to the clients telling them he was still working on it while he was deploying it to his own servers. The company was founded by a shitbag thief, who is completely devoid of normal human emotions and ethics. Those clients sued him and were awarded a few million dollars, which is pretty pathetic considering the value of the company. Anyway, of course they’re lying. They were founded on lying and stealing, and that has been their mantra ever since.
