Just like the Meta glasses sent your video feeds to Kenya [1] this one will send the soul of your firstborn there

It should be within your rights to apply violence if someone records you with Meta glasses or with this pendant without your consent.

What products has Meta developed internally after Facebook that have been a success? I am actually asking this question, it seems like they have only had success purchasing already ramping products, plowing cash into them, and cross-integrating them into their product set. Why wouldn't they just continue to lean into that profile and wait for people with actual good ideas solve this.

Why was it trivial for FB to scale WhatsApp from 450,000,000 users at acquisition to over 3,300,000,000 now?

Seems like an insane achievement to scale a messaging service to half of the world.

Was it just because WhatsApp was already generally well designed when they purchased it?

8x scaling over a time period where the available size and performance of single-image systems increased by more than 8x seems… if not trivial, at least not an “insane achievement.”

Threads? They have 400m monthly active users. Though, its userbase likely does not intersect with your interests.

Meta Ray-Ban glasses are also a massive success.

Why anyone would pay money for meta to collect their entire life of data is beyond me.

Instagram and Facebook and WhatsApp are already free.
