Ironically I think rather than them wearing them for nefarious reasons, they've just been encouraged to use them for so long, that they are actually addicted to them as well.
Like, if you were forced to use your employers product at work for 10-12 hrs a day and try to come up with way to monetize it in your off hours, you may start to rely on it eventually.
Our brains are wired to always take the easiest path, that's actually the reason for technological advancement in the first place.
They probably just don't even realize they're wearing them, it's just a (mostly useless and completely impractical) part of their bodies now.
Never attribute to stupidity that which is adequately explained by a good marketing opportunity.
Don't stick up for the zuck, he's got fucking billions to pour into other people doing it for him.
First of all you can’t use them for 10-12 hours a day because the battery only lasts like 2 hours. Which is a bit silly for glasses.
They knew what they were doing, as if ignorance would be an excuse. No one wears camera glasses to court just forgetting about it.
As if they wear the things on their own time, they probably wouldn't be caught dead wearing that garbage in their free time outside of hyping the product at work. They would have custom made something.
