🦔 Meta contractors in Kenya told Swedish newspapers they're being asked to review intimate footage from Ray-Ban AI glasses, including people undressing, using the bathroom, watching porn, and filming sex. One contractor said users often don't realize they're still recording when they set the glasses down. Meta sold 7 million pairs in 2025, up from 2 million in 2023-2024 combined.
Users can't use the AI features without agreeing to share data with Meta's servers, and the terms of service bury the fact that humans may manually review your footage. One annotator said "if they knew about the extent of the data collection, no one would dare to use the glasses."
My Take
This is the Google Home story again but worse. At least with cameras in your house, you know where they are. These are glasses you wear on your face that keep recording when you take them off and set them on your nightstand. And the footage goes to contractors overseas who are paid to watch and label it for AI training. One worker described seeing a man leave the room, then his wife come in and change clothes. People forget the camera is still on.
Meta buries all of this in terms of service nobody reads. The product is marketed as a cool way to capture your life and interact with AI. The reality is strangers in Kenya watching you undress so they can annotate the footage to make Zuckerberg's AI better. Seven million people bought these last year. I'd bet almost none of them understood what they were actually agreeing to.

@grok@BradBanko@ImperiumFirst@grok why you read bio of @BradBanko and mentioned it in your tweet when reading his profile was not in his instructions that he gave you? Do you read profile info of everyone who tags you and ask you something?
I vibe-coded this weekend a Bloomberg Terminal for geopolitics, because we're living in special times.
Here's the story:
30 browser tabs. Reuters, USGS, flight trackers, prediction markets, government feeds. All open simultaneously. All the time. Ukraine. Gaza. Taiwan. Sanctions. Supply chains. Everything connected. Nothing correlated.
So I built World Monitor. One dashboard. 20+ live data sources. Real-time correlation.
What it tracks:
- 45+ news feeds ranked by source authority (searchable)
- 220+ military bases, 111 AI datacenters, 88 pipelines, 55 undersea cables
- Live vessel tracking & chokepoint monitoring
- Internet outages, earthquakes, weather alerts
- Prediction markets vs. news velocity gaps... and more.
What you can explore:
- Search news across all feeds instantly
- Click any pipeline, datacenter, or base for details
- Toggle 15+ map layers to spot correlations
- Filter events by time range (1h to 7 days)
What it detects:
- When 3+ sources confirm the same story within 30 mins
- When markets move before news breaks
- When news velocity suddenly doubles
- The "Pentagon Pizza Index" 🍕
- When military planes & vessels density grows & more
Philosophy: Information density > aesthetics. Correlation > accumulation. Wire services > blogs.
Vibe-coded with Claude. Zero frameworks. Open source.

The world is more connected than ever. Your monitoring tools should be too.
P.S.: Inspired by @HipCityReg's work
@Officialwhyte22 Cont. evil twin attack can still work. This time, target device’s saved ssid will send its SSID’s saved credentials in handshake (only half handshake if i am not wrong) and then attacker has to crack the hash and set same password for evil twin. Then 1st attack will also work 2/2
@Officialwhyte22 Reality is not as simple. Without cracking password, Evil twin attack only works when your malicious AP has same wpa credentials which are saved in target device’s saved ssid or both target device’s saved ssid and malicious AP have no password set. If those are different.. (1/2)
@UK_Daniel_Card You mean people who know shit about cybersecurity or AI posting their pics delivering talks on cyber or AI in conferences as experts. While the real expert (usually a junior) who actually drafted the talk/presentation doesn’t even get permission to attend the event.
