Since when did zuck care about how users feel. They intentionally cause anxiety and depression in teens because it made engagement go up. They want the glasses in the world for ambient data collection.

The thought is that he should care because it affects our willingness to tolerate him and his.
He had a product with the most product market fit ever. He thinks everything he does will have the same user tolerance for his brutalist disrespect for humanity. Thats why everything else he tries to build fails so he has to buy the competition.
His product fit relied on doing the dirty work behind the shadows to make his company worth trillions of dollars, but he's so obsessed with being a front-facing personality when he simply specced low in charisma. He is fundamentally not going to be the person who will convince anyone to put anything on their face.
I have 4 different types of smart glasses. I feel visceral aversion about the meta glasses because of passed abuses of data.
