Meta won't say why or whether it's coming back.

People must oppose “smart” glasses with cameras and microphones without compromise.

I wonder if there’s some way we could destroy these devices remotely.

This is the main reason why I haven’t bought Oakleys or RayBans. I will not support companies that agree to make their products spying machines. I bought SunGod instead - better on every front, with 1% for the planet pledge and B Corp certification. European (UK) - without shitty face recognition in them.

Bolle as well, if you wanted a pair that can both survive a fall and protect your squishiest organs from anything up to a bullet
