    Wow impressive. I thought the UK enjoyed surveiling their citizens, but maybe because Meta is a foreign entity they can’t just bludgeon into getting data from, it has to be banned.

  They are available in Europe. There was an attempt to ban these in Germany, but it was determined that the recording LED was enough to not make this an illegal secret recording device.
