First time seeing a “NO META GLASSES” sign in the door of a shop! I’m not surprised… and I expect we might see more of these kind of things in the years ahead.

@danyork FAcebook was founded on the idea of being creepy as fuck and stalking folk.
Creepy as fuck.
Mark is a voyeur, always has been.
So this is just more of the same.
@danyork I'd feel more comfortable seeing a fellow customer in a restaurant with holstered pistol than I would than one wearing those panopticon goggles. safer
@danyork We obviously don't frequent the same strip clubs
@danyork if you've been acting long enough, you do remember the "Glassholes" when Google glass was originally unveiled back in 2013
@danyork a small mole “no assholes” sign does the same thing
@danyork I run an app on my phone that sounds an alarm whenever meta glasses come near me.
I feel pity for the lost souls that have to take off their prescription meta ray bans at this shop, and are forced to blindstumble through the aisles trying to fingerguess what they're holding. "Errr... Excuse me, how much is this banana?" "Sir, this a sex shop not a grocery store."
@danyork i hope they make an exception for blind people that use these as ectr help with the be my eyes app
@danyork guess you missed the "no glassholes" movement back in 2014

@ozone89 Oh, no… I very much remember all that. And this has the same kind of sense. The diff now is that it is increasingly harder to tell the glasses apart from regular ones, whereas the Google Glasses were extremely obvious!
@danyork This probably less about the privacy of their workers and more about preventing pricing research.
@danyork faraday cages for all!
