Users of Meta's AI smart glasses in Europe may be unknowingly sharing intimate video and sensitive financial information with moderators outside of the bloc, according to a report from Sweden's Svenska Dagbladet released last week. Employees in Kenya doing AI "annotation" told the journalists that they've seen people nude, using the toilet and engaging in sexual activity, along with credit card numbers and other sensitive information.

lol what kind of weird nerd is wearing smart glasses while having sex lmao

imagine you're over at some dudes house, about to get dicked down, and he comes out with nothing but these big fat blinking glasses on

According to recent events, some fucked up people are willing to be filmed like this. Here's link to the video if anyone is interested.

I assume it's people making (hopefully consensual) POV videos.

[–] 87Six@lemmy.zip 5 points 19 hours ago (1 children)

I feel like people using these glasses, instead of a good camera setup WHICH CAN COST LESS, which look more incognito, are likely not doing it consensually...

[–] Landless2029@lemmy.world 3 points 14 hours ago (1 children)

It doesn't even need to be fancy or expensive

I know why they’re doing it. I just think it’s something only a doofus would do.

[–] drmoose@lemmy.world 2 points 21 hours ago (3 children)

You think only a doofus would make POV sextape with their partner?

[–] ParadoxSeahorse@lemmy.world 7 points 20 hours ago

with these, absolutely

[–] Luminous5481@anarchist.nexus 2 points 15 hours ago

I think only a doofus would spend money on smart glasses from facebook

[–] Honytawk@discuss.tchncs.de 3 points 18 hours ago

Only a doofus would buy these glasses.

[–] zewm@lemmy.world 17 points 2 days ago

Or someone making OF content for example.

Yea, it sounds more confortable than wearing just a camera tied to yourself. POV porn is popular afaik

Believe it or not but not all sex starts with walking into the bahtroom, closing the door, disrobing, and hopping under the covers.

And while it likely applies less to the folk with camera glasses: If your vision is poor enough, it is always a tradeoff between them getting in the way and constantly squinting at your partner.

[–] TALL421@lemmy.world 24 points 2 days ago (1 children)

Why do you have blankets in your bathroom

[–] Canconda@lemmy.ca 14 points 2 days ago (2 children)

No it's the "Baht Room". Like you've been Baht. You need to be punished. *wtsh *wtsh

Let me gobble you up like a Türkiye

[–] NuXCOM_90Percent@lemmy.zip 6 points 2 days ago

Exactly. This obviously wasn't a brain fart + typo.

The kink shaming of some people.

[–] Luminous5481@anarchist.nexus 7 points 2 days ago (1 children)

omg can I just make fun of techbros wearing Facebook smart glasses without everyone doing an 18-point analysis on it?

[–] Lemminary@lemmy.world 0 points 2 days ago* (last edited 2 days ago)

I feel your pain. Welcome to Lemmy.

[–] eager_eagle@lemmy.world 7 points 2 days ago* (last edited 2 days ago) (1 children)

I hate making out wearing glasses. That said, it is a porn category 🤷‍♂️

[–] Semi_Hemi_Demigod@lemmy.world 8 points 2 days ago

Glasses are like lingerie: They’re not for during, but before

Really? I think it's way more natural than wearing a go pro.

Bedroom is a very reasonable realm for smart glasses if they aren't connected to the internet and are used for local recording.

The really weird part is wearing them in public and either recording people without their consent or even giving the clear impression of recording people without their consent. Wearing smart glasses in a public place is just an asshole move.
