Comment on Dear Meta Smart Glasses Wearers: You're Being Watched, Too
CosmoNova@lemmy.world 4 weeks agoCall me conservative but I think that would still suck. A society where everyone has a camera on their nose pointing at you sounds absolutely dreadful.

Eh, you’re already on a dozen cameras every time you go outside. Security cameras, state surveillance cameras, doorbell cameras, cameras all over every modern car… What’s a few more?

Ah yes. The fallacy of you’re already being exploited so what’s one more time?

Really, though – is that not true?
There is already no expectation of privacy and anonymity anymore. Cameras are already everywhere, more and more of them interconnected and tracking your every step. If you want privacy and anonymity outside of your own home, you need to be wearing a mask, and maybe taking measures to disguise your gait and physical proportions as well. Having slightly more or slightly fewer cameras out there isn’t going to change that whatsoever.

Yeah! Things are already bad. It’s so much simpler to let it get worse than trying to make things better!

No I don‘t because I don‘t live in an Orwellian hellhole (yet) like most people seem to do these days. Even if I did your comment is an admission of absolute capitulation. What a sad worldview.

Doomism is not the solution

If you see a ring door bell, they aren’t hard to kick or rip off the wall.
Actually I’m going to make some informative stickers that happen to cover the camera and sensor of those things. I’ll post them when they’re up.

calls for vandalism of personal property. not good.

It is a bit more difficult, however, to do that without being caught, since they’ll probably have camera footage of you doing it.

Lmk, I could def use them. I work in ppls houses in the US. I swear almost half the houses have cameras, 90% ring. It’s insane.

Okay, then. I wish you the very best of luck in destroying every camera you see. Hopefully you’re wearing a mask and unidentifying clothes every time you go out.
