  • My partner got a pair for work when they first came out (her job involves creating social media content). I was impressed by the speakers and it’s the same style of sunglasses that I normally wear daily, so I got a pair for myself. It was so nice to be able to listen to stuff and take calls without carry around headphones or putting them in when the phone rang. I was already uncomfortable with the association with meta, but was able to isolate that aspect at first. As they continued to add features, I’ve started being less comfortable with them. I accidentally left them somewhere a couple months ago and decided not to replace them. It’s such a bummer that all the cool tech is now not just spying on you, but on everyone around you. Fuckin capitalism ruins everything.


  • As a jew, I also had the same initial reaction to the star of david. Then I realized the bars of the flag are present as the band of the underwear and a line at the bottom of the briefs. I wish there was a gap between the bars and the top/bottom to make this more obvious and more accurate to the flag instead of the symbol of judaism. This being the flag makes sense. If it was just the star, I would agree that it is antisemitic.
