Teen Boys Terrorize Girls at High Schools and Middle Schools in Very Public and Easily Tracable Ways and Still No One is Stopping Them

In my eyes anyone wearing one of these is a pervert. I simply don't see who else could be the audience for a purposefully discreet camera built into a pair of glasses. Even Google's attempt at glasses were more overt that these. I'd say Meta is shameful, but that's not exactly a shocker to anyone at this point.

Edit: Seen a few suggestions, but my counterpoint to all of them is - you don't need the camera to discreet fir any of these purposes. You'd only need it to be discreet if you didn't want people to realise you were filming, which just seems aimed towards perverts in my mind.

From the opening part of the article, the problem is not just the glasses. The glasses are definitely an issue that needs to be sorted out society wide, but there is a problem with how these boys are raised. Badly raised boys have always been an issue but now they are being raised by manosphere incel influencers. The glasses just let them record their harassment to post for clout and to draw others into their bullying.

By there not being enough consequences for these boys, not only are you making more boys like this, but not doing those boys any favours either. No one mentally healthy is going to want to be with that kind of boy.

Weak parents. Weak schools. Weak government. Failing everyone.

I guarantee most of these schools protect the bullies and punish the victims. Like if a girl being harassed broke the glasses, she would get expelled. The world is the way it is because people enable and worship bullies across the board.

I blame the parents

Hoooold up just a minute. How much do these glasses cost? Like hundreds right? What kind of teen boy has that much money to burn? I sure as fuck didn't, and I worked. Their parents bought them, and these are kids, so it's 100% blame on the parents here.

Can someone explain why this isn't actually a solution to an old problem? We used to have issues with various forms of harassment that were not addressed because they relied on unreliable testimony. Now we actually have people creating hard evidence of their actions.

The behaviors described in this article are banned in every school I or my children have ever attended. How difficult would it be for the parents of any of these victims to hire a lawyer to absolutely wipe the floor with these people? Don't these videos basically put the perpetrators heads on silver platters?

Stop blaming the kids, it’s the corporation’s fault. Title should be Meta glasses are recording and enabling harassment of underaged school children

I am Jack's complete lack of surprise.

Couple this w/ the AI nudification sites and this is gonna be insane. Teen boys don't think big picture...

@madeindex I'm shocked that someone who made his fortune scaling up a website he made to rate the looks of female students at Harvard could come up with something creepers would use to harass women and girls.

People are being disgusting, using technology that was designed to be stealthy on purpose by others for disgusting reasons (to normalize allowing ever greater data collection by tech companies - no surprise the privacy protections are trivially easy to defeat), and are posting videos online for a reason - that they get satisfaction from it.

I guess I don’t care if this makes me sound old or callous, but we need to bully these people. Make the people who post and share these videos embarrassed. Tell them they look like stupid losers who can’t get dates or talk to people. Make them feel bad for not being kind and socially connecting with others. Give them no community or understanding until they stop breaking the social contract.

"Hey everyone, this asshole is wearing smart glasses and recording us all. Question is: are they going to remove them right now, or are we?"

It's ok, their parents will take care of the situation.

Why is the minimum age not 18?

Maybe we can get our hands on some of those Volvo lidar modules to combat all these cameras around us? "Your assumed right to record me doesn't overrule my right to make high resolution 3D scans of everywhere I go."

just grab a pair of cheap Clark Kents. girls will avoid you.

use a james bond pen if you only want pictures.

Here they're not even allowing students to carry mobile phones inside of schools. How is this even allowed?

Yeah no shit letting people go around with concealed recording equipment is resulting in problems. Especially in a fucking school!

Sit them in a dunce corner full of mirrors until the battery runs out.

these boys need their mother's to whoop their asses and their dads to whip them into shape.

"oh boys will be boys"

no. boys will be whatever you let them be, and if you let them be perverted pieces of shit they grow up to be perverted pieces of shit.
