LED head lights have to go until car manufacturers learn how to use them properly. It's perfectly possible to have non glare LEDs but the cheap mofos won't want to spend money to retool everything.
But we're in a plutocracy, not a democracy.
Honestly... This is where leaders should be elected or fired by the workers themselves.
You'll find that there are tech enthusiasts and tech consumers. Tech enthusiasts are usually fans of FLOSS and want technology accessible for all; basically they want tech to work for them. Tech consumers are usually fans of what's new on the tech market and become the product.
I'm part of the former. These glasses are awful in every way possible, so much so that the alleged benefits are minuscule in comparison to privacy breaches, misuse of data by a private company, training of AI models on that stolen data, parasitic and enforces a reliance on being online.
I'd much rather trust independent research than a private profit driven tech company to develop anything to assist disabilities. There's already tech being developed that potentially restores some sight to the blind.
These glasses have got to go.
