Joanna Stern, on YouTube:
People across the country are offering a service on Facebook
Marketplace to disable the recording light on Ray-Ban Meta
glasses. They call it “Stealth Mode.” Joanna paid $100 for the
modification and went inside the growing business of turning smart
glasses into covert cameras. She investigates who is doing it,
whether it’s legal and what some are doing to try and stop it.
Of course there’s a market for this. But the true chef’s kiss is that the market to find people who offer the service is on … Facebook Marketplace. Using a Meta platform to find people to hack a Meta device so you can surreptitiously record strangers. So perfectly Meta.
