Yes. The issue with Meta glasses and those pendants are that they are designed for concealment, designed to invade the privacy of other people. Some might argue that mobile phones can also be used to make secret recordings. However, they are not primarily designed for this and it is a side-effect of being a multifunctional tool. However, whenever anyone uses Meta glasses or their pendants in public, one should assume that they may behave maliciously and take appropriate action against such ppeople. Those people will only learn if we collectively decide that punching and breaking their stupid glasses is the right way to handle this.

What kind of worse case scenario is running through your mind to be this upset? Not saying it doesn't exist I just would like to know.
You say the wrong thing, wear the wrong thing, look disheveled or whatever and the asshole with the KGB glasses records it. Then MoistCunt (always forget the real name) on Twitch makes a "reaction video" and 35 million of his dumb minions hate you forever if you dare to appear on the Internet.

Not to mention that doing so is a felony in a two-party consent state.
