Stunning quote in this report from The New York Times about Meta’s plans to add facial recognition to their Ray-Bans:
We will launch during a dynamic political environment where many civil society groups that we would expect to attack us would have their resources focused on other concerns.
@manton I’ve already pulled all my own activity from Meta properties. I’m reaching the point where I’m not going to read other people’s work there either.
@manton This goes hand-in-hand with the political “muzzle velocity” strategy Ezra Klein reported on a year ago.

@manton Countdown to people wearing those glasses getting punched in the face… Didn’t we learn anything from Google Glass?

If I notice that anyone is using those glasses while talking to/or looking at me, I'll whack them off their face and stamp on them to fully destroy them.
