Meta’s Ray-Ban glasses usually include an LED that lights up when the user is recording other people. One hobbyist is charging a small fee to disable that light, and has a growing list of customers around the country.

    So prying off the protective glass, drilling out the LED, and filling the void with resin, like this creep demonstrates. With electrical tape covering the LED, it seems creeps are required to block the camera sensor, for roughly one second after initiating video recording: as the photodiode value next to the LED is compared to brightness of the camera sensor; so by temporarily matching the two, Meta’s plausible deniability mechanism can be bypassed.
