I don’t like this “smart glasses are evil” sentiment. They would improve the lives of many people. I’ve seen demonstrations of its use for blind people. Even people simply travelling and having everything translated automatically would be nice. But, yeah, going into a restroom with them on, or not asking for authorization from the patient to use them, crosses a big red line.
I only spend time on Lemmy in bursts, but it has become pretty clear that most people in this "technology" community absolutely hate all forms of technology. It's pretty weird.
The topic of the community is "technology". It's not called "pro-technology". Negative commentary on technology is included in "technology" as a topic.
