A developer built a real-world ad blocker for Snap Spectacles, though the limited opacity and field of view make it squarely a proof of concept.
The irony of visiting an article about an adblocker and seeing a message to disable my adblocker.

Imagine trying to wear those and, let’s say, seeing red wherever you look.
But we already have RL ad blockers.
Iirc the legal term is “vandalism”. The stakes are higher, but the perk is that one user can block an ad for every user, so think of it as a community effort.
Where is the Kickstarter for this? TAKE MY MONEY!!!
