Appreciate the info and link, but $168 for what is essentially a few dollars of SOLAS tape and a pair of IR laser safety glasses? Bruh.

it was a reply to "Now would be a good time to start a line of headwear that has infrared leds to shield your face from cameras."

i won't buy it but it's already out there. He probably produces them alone and can't sell them for less than that.

If you've got the time, diy; if you've got more money than time, $168 may be preferable. There are people who won't be making that much money this month, there are others who buy media platforms as a hobby for $44000000000 🤷
