The code WIRED identified is gone from the latest version of Meta AI, the companion app for the company’s smart glasses. Meta won’t say why or whether it’s coming back.
They removed it and are looking at masking it better and will reinstall it after it’s hidden and only Meta can spy on people and the data will be available for all agencies that want it.
“We can just collect pieces of telemetry from the 50,000 other data collection mechanisms we have installed on the glasses and then reassemble it server side where we have the AI set up to fuck everyone on the planet
“You didn’t think that this was the only way we were fucking everyone on the planet did you? Bwa ha ha ha”
Unless you destroy these companies, strip the CEOs of all of their money, and publicly execute them, they will never ever ever stop. history has taught us, over and over and over again, that is the only thing that will ever stop them. Ever.
And even then, they will only stop until the next person comes along to do it, and then you must do the same to them.
Ever heard of Marie Antoinette? or the literally thousands of monsters that came before and after?
This is why they do their best to destroy education, so the people will never learn
I’ve heard it as, “Nothing will materially change until the plutocrats fear for their lives.”
They killed a health insurance CEO. Nothing materially changed. They tried to kill Trump several times. Nothing materially changed.
It changed something - approval rates for a while were much higher. After they found out that it was a lone incident, it went back to the business as usual.
So every part of it is true. It works, and you must not stop until it’s worked out in its entirety.
Not true. In the wake of the health care CEO’s execution, approvals not only increased in his company, but other health care companies as well. Thousands of people were helped who would have been cheated otherwise.
They’ve gone back to their old ways, which only proves that a CEO needs to be executed at random every 6 months or so, until they’ve made proper behavior a positive habit.
So… indeed true.
Excuse my excessiveness, as I was feeling a bit florid last night.
I have to say, you have a very robust vocabulary.
They’ve never given anything back without being forced to. Never.
“oops we got caught”
Zuckerberg has always been a fucking creep. Je invented Facebook to creep on women on campus.
He didn’t invent shit. He was given “Lifelog” by the NSA and told to develop it.
The Winkelvi have a different origin story, and the court gave them a zillion dollars in confirmation.
Lol, sure they did…
$5 says they put it back inside the next month
“removed”
They removed the part that the user can notice.
I think the plan at this point if you catch some asshole wearing smart glasses. You walk up to the biggest dude around and tell him that the guy is recording his kids or wife with his glasses being creepy.
I think that’s called incitement to panic and can get you arrested.
True enough the idea is to be long gone by the time something goes down. I’m not saying I would scream in a crowed but just quietly walk up and tell father/husband. I mean if wasn’t being creepy why would he be wearing a hidden camera bon his face.
You do you but just remember that we live in a society chock full of surveillance. Running away isn’t a guarantee that you won’t be caught. They can track your phone, your face, or your car with very little effort on their part.
So maybe don’t incite people to violence for a tech device. Just go punch him yourself if you’re so inclined.
One memo reportedly described releasing it during a “dynamic political environment,” when privacy and civil liberties advocates would be distracted.
This line says it all…
Makes one wonder why they even invested effort into creating it in the first place
I don’t own any smart glasses, but people’s hatred of them is weird. Every time you leave your house or apartment you’re being recorded by people’s doorbell cams, security cams, anyone holding a phone vertical could be filming you, and you can’t tell. And that’s not even getting into the actual hidden cameras that are so cheap and easily accessible these days.
You wanna get worked up about some guy with a camera in his goofy looking glasses?
It’s not weird, they are just a bit smarter than you in understanding that secret personal cameras will lead to tons of harassment of women, weird looking people, anyone doing anything embarrassing etc etc. It all goes up on social media.
Yeah, all that’s happening right now, this is just a different form of camera.
That shouldn’t be acceptable either.
