    Maybe we can get our hands on some of those Volvo lidar modules to combat all these cameras around us? “Your assumed right to record me doesn’t overrule my right to make high resolution 3D scans of everywhere I go.”

      Are the glasses lens telephoto?

      Those are the only ones the article says get damaged by the lidar

      I’m a teacher. I don’t know how they pull this of - but even kids from poorer families tend to carry some very expensive gadgets around all day. Stuff I wouldn’t afford with my 4k salary because it would be completely unreasonable.

      They do.

    By there not being enough consequences for these boys, not only are you making more boys like this, but not doing those boys any favours either. No one mentally healthy is going to want to be with that kind of boy.

    Weak parents. Weak schools. Weak government. Failing everyone.

        How the fuck is this a “relatively normal” camera, or ANY kind of “normal”? People like you are the reason these companies get away with shit like this.

        When it breaks laws. My area has two-party consent laws, so recording someone, whether audio or video, without their explicit consent is against the law. Children are often not held to the fullest extent of the law, and if they cannot be held responsible, then they shouldn’t have access to such devices until they can be.

        I’m not naive to think that these devices will just go away or that the genie can go back into the bottle. But that is where regulation must act to protect people’s privacy rights.

    From the opening part of the article, the problem is not just the glasses. The glasses are definitely an issue that needs to be sorted out society wide, but there is a problem with how these boys are raised. Badly raised boys have always been an issue but now they are being raised by manosphere incel influencers. The glasses just let them record their harassment to post for clout and to draw others into their bullying.

    Did we not learn from those X-ray goggle ads in the 50s? Boys are pervs and any toy that achieves it will get whatever adolescent/pre-adolescent boys can summon.

    Actually, Zuck learned to exploit this craving. Sick fuck.

    If I saw them I would them call the police. Especially if there are kids around. No 4th amendment here and no local police departments that can easily be bought off. The police might not find something incriminating every time.
