I want to believe that the Venn diagram of tech illiterate people and people wearing meta glasses has no overlap, but point taken.
what does that even mean? the whole point of the tech industry is for tech-literate people to work to provide products and services to the broadly tech-illiterate public. the goal of a tech product is to be used with as little tech-literacy as possible. why would you assume that someone is highly tech-literate just because they use the product of a tech company?
I consider the meta glasses new enough that it's an early-adoption product. Early adopters are usually not tech illiterate. Does that make sense?
Bro even Macy's sells these things in store. They're a mass market product.
