This is for self-defense. Not that I live in a country where they (officially) ship, but just in case…
Regarding “how to tell them apart from regular glasses”, this question is mainly about Ray-Ban Blayzer Optics:
Ray-Ban Scriber Optics:
And Ray-Ban Display:
Because these are by far the hardest to identify. Other glasses either have a clearly visible “RayBan” text in the top left corner (which for the pictured ones isn’t clearly visible) or can be identified just by their style.
I share your anger and frustration, but, as much as I hate revisionism, try lobbying instead of getting yourself locked up. I managed to convince my freaking COUNTY to add a phrase about banning smart glasses on hospital grounds “simply” by explaining the situation to them. A lot of the inspiration I got from: https://banray.eu/en/
Wow, nice. I wish I had the determination and social skills to complain to the right people effectively.
Small steps. I am completely stunted when it comes to dating, but composing emails can be rewarding, because there is litterally nothing for me to lose. It’s not in realtime.
Honestly surprised an email got any response. I don’t think I’ve ever gotten anything other than 10 donation requests in return.
God fucking damn it. I was so excited for stuff like this to come out so I could finally have a real life HUD, maybe a Crazy Taxi arrow showing the direction I should be heading, and of course it turns into a weaponised dystopia product before I can even begin to afford one.
Edit : my frustration was after reading your link. Good job to you for getting shit done about it! Had to make a quick edit there the tone looked wrong.
Nah, no need for edits and explanations. I get it. I too wished it could’ve been something awesome, perhaps localized, but alas. It’s like
nsfw
rule 34
but for data brokers: if it exists, there is a way to farm data with it.
Tbf, if enough people are shot for filming people with their “smart” glasses they’ll stop wearing them.
Not that I condone it, just making an observation
