"Much of the behavior on display is plainly harassment and bullying, often filmed without the subjects’ knowledge or consent and uploaded online to humiliate them further. Strikingly, every single one of the many #SmartGlasses videos we found were captured by teen boys — and their bad behavior was overwhelmingly directed at girls."

"It’s clear that some teenage boys are taking cues from #viral pickup artists and online pranksters who have abused #Meta glasses to record themselves harassing unsuspecting #women in public or badgering employees at their place of work. These young #SmartGlasses users are copying those tactics and deploying them against other teens at their schools, and the overwhelming majority of this harassment has been directed at teen girls."
