I just dont think that kicking a nerd with smart glasses in the face is how we protect ourselves meaningfully from that, and am arguing generally from that position.

Where have I argued for violence against these people?

My standpoint has been prevention of their production and use, not violent attacks on their users. Me talking on the internet about how the people that use them are cunts is not a violent attack.

The users are useful idiots paying for and supporting a product throigh ignorance, or wilfully intending to use them for imoral reasons.

You started this conversation by saying “i would say there are definite use cases for smart glasses/“eyes”. Yes, corporations are pushing it without restraint or common sense because capitalism, but the technology in principle is not necessarily evil.” Which in principle I agree with, cameras themselves are not evil, but the people wearing facebook-owned cameras disguised as glasses DESIGNED to record everything discretely enough to not be immediately noticeable, are not morally upstanding people and should know that they are being mocked.

I am arguing from the point of ‘We as people should not have to use anti paparazzi reflective coverings every day just so that these fuckers can wear their pervert glasses without challenge.’ The same way we should not have to wear prismatic face shields to prevent AI facial recognition.

Good luck building a ‘fake online identity’ that isn’t immediately associated with your personal information, because thanks to the ability of AI systems to analyse huge swathes of data, your way of typing, the things you interact with, and your internet traffic can be easily traced back to you as a human. This is a well documented fact, and can be/is used to create fake profiles that use your exact tone of speech and your mannerisms indistinguishable from your ‘real’ words.
