    “You woke up at 7:22am!”
    “You played stardew valley in bed for 14 hours!”
    “You took minor chickie mcnuggie breaks twice today!”

    Apple seems really focused on preventing the audio from making it off the device.

    Which fine, I believe they’ll make that very difficult. Apple has engineering chops.

    But it’s not the fucking point. I ALSO don’t want every watchhole around me making transcriptions of anything I say within earshot of whoever wears one. Which will be way less noticeable than even smart glasses. Say goodbye to having an unrecorded conv in most public places.

    The whitewashing of the privacy probs with this is galling.

      Once the technology is implemented and ubiquitous it would only take a secret government mandate and a gag order for the code to be altered to listen for particular words and phrases and log them

    Oh great, now we’re all going to have to buy voice modulators that interject some kind of patterned noise that scrambles audio recording. Just like those masks that interfere with video.

    The privacy arms race has begun.

    In a decade we’ll all be wearing privacy helmets.

    Wait, that sounds kind of cool actually.

    I have the perfect timepiece. It tells the time and that’s it. It syncs to atomic time so it’s always accurate and charges by solar so it’s never dead. It has no transmitter or audio capabilities.

      …unless, of course, you’re close to a person who wears one of these. then you still get spied on yaaaaayyyyy

      and unlike the meta glasses, these look the same as any apple watch, which have already been normalized in society. so shunning people for wearing these won’t work cuz you won’t be able to tell. i love the future this is so COOL
