Story about low priced Anko branded competitor to Meta smart glasses. The story author calls out that despite Meta’s attempts to prevent recording if the LED is covered, it is easy to get around the block. I think it’s good for mainstream press to say it, so more ppl realize. They also call out that human moderators at Meta review their smart glasses footage. Inc videos of people having sex or using the toilet.
IDK if public backlash will nix the market for these, or if opposition will dry up and in 10 more years they will be mainstream tech like smartphones are today. I could see it going either way TBH.
It scares me that one of those timelines leads to a hellscape worse than the one we already have.
I did visit the Kmart in Miami last month! :p There are still three Kmart stores and five Sears stores open in the US.
Sears:
Kmart:
Huh. You travel a lot and or have a good eye. Just about every one I have ever known or any old building is long gone.
Nah I just happen to live near the Concord location and visited all the Florida locations when I went on vacation there. The list is just public knowledge.
You… Seek out kmarts in Florida?
I don’t. Remember them doing anything well.
No, I was on vacation there anyway and thought why not visit them.
I’m simply pointing out that that isn’t a normal thought.
