Espionage glasses need accountability, not just promises. That wasn't the future promised.

Anti-Creep Features on Meta's Pervert Glasses Will Still Be Easy to Sidestep

I have a buddy that bought AR glass to play around with and actually do AR development. We taunt him all time time and ask him if he has perv'd on anyone today, even though we know he he leaves them at home. The technology is tainted.
