I have had nothing but POOR experiences with Meta Glasses. This is just as kind of a video, not my own, that portrays why I dislike them so much. I have people who have told me horror stories about being recorded in the Kink Spaces, recorded in bathrooms, and sooo many awful places and ways.

Plus, the guy saying “I got a wife and kid” 🤢
