What privacy risks come with Meta Ray-Bans?

Cameras and mics record constantly, sending data to Meta's cloud for AI training. Faces, voices, locations— all slurped without bystander consent.

Are Meta Ray-Bans legal to wear everywhere?

Mostly yes, but venues ban them like Google Glass. Expect fights in gyms, theaters; laws vary by state on secret recording.

Support EFF, push for fed rules mandating hardware kill-switches. Personally? Spot the LED blink, cover cams, or boycott.

🏛️ Governance & Ethics

Snap. Your Ray-Bans just captured a stranger's face. But Meta's servers? They're the real audience. Privacy's toast.
