It's the inevitable next step in FB's "AI glasses" --> facial recognition.

It's the use case everyone was warning about, going back to the good (bad) ol' glassh*le days.

So much for learning from history. This looks deliberate.

I'd rather wear a CV-dazzle type mask if I see another guy wearing his AI glasses.

Meta already had to settle a class action lawsuit for running facial recognition on people in the background of Facebook photos in states where this is illegal. And tech privacy laws have become stronger and more widespread since then.

So I'm looking forward to getting another $400 check in the mail from Meta.

Serious question- how does one defend against this besides wearing a mask or face paint? I want nothing to do with these glassholes.
