Meta's Latest Attempt at Damage Control: A Study in Futility Meta's latest effort to prevent user tampering with its smart glasses involves disabling the camera when someone messes with the privacy LED light.
This move acknowledges that previous attempts to discourage modders have been unsuccessful. The update targets "modders who physically drill into the LED light," but it raises more questions than answers.
What is Meta trying to protect by disabling the camera? Is this a genuine concern for users' safety and well being, or an attempt to salvage the reputation of its smart glasses?
