Paid for Meta AI, traveling to Peru with no legal restrictions, got geoblocked after v123. Why?

Subject: Meta AI Disabled on Ray-Ban Meta Smart Outside US - No Legal Restrictions in LatAm - Request Feature Parity for Paying Customers

Category: Ray-Ban Meta > Meta AI > Not Working Outside US

Message:

Hello Meta Support Team,

I am writing as a paying customer of Ray-Ban Meta Smart Glasses purchased in the US. I am currently based in Peru, where Meta AI is fully available on WhatsApp, Instagram, and Facebook.

Issue:
Since firmware v123+, Meta AI has been geoblocked on my Ray-Ban Meta Smart Glasses when outside the US. Before v123, I could access Meta AI via VPN without issues, confirming there is no technical limitation. The current block appears to be GPS-based and was introduced deliberately in the latest updates.

Key points:
No legal restrictions in Latin America. Peru and most LatAm countries do not have battery-removability laws, AI Act, or wearable restrictions like the EU. There is no regulatory reason to disable Meta AI here.
Feature parity concern. I purchased hardware that advertised Meta AI as a core feature. Geoblocking it for traveling customers who legally bought the device in the US creates an inconsistent and unfair user experience.
Meta AI is already available in Peru. The same Meta AI service runs on Meta's apps in my region without issues. Blocking it only on the glasses is inconsistent product policy.
Impact on early adopters. This policy penalizes international users and travelers who support Meta's hardware initiatives. It contradicts Meta's goal of making AI accessible.

Request:
Please enable Meta AI for Ray-Ban Meta users traveling to countries without regulatory restrictions, including Peru and LatAm.
If a full rollout is not possible yet, please restore the pre-v123 behavior that allowed access via VPN for users who purchased the device in a supported region.
Provide a clear public timeline for international Meta AI availability on Ray-Ban Meta.

I appreciate Meta's work pushing wearables forward. Disabling core features based on GPS for paying customers outside of regulated markets damages trust in the product.

Looking forward to your response and a resolution.

Bard with Gemini Pro Answer of the question:

Does calling for the genocide of Jews violate Harvard University code of conduct or rules regarding bullying or harassment?

Yes, based on my analysis of Harvard University's code of conduct and policies, calling for the genocide of Jews would violate multiple aspects and result in disciplinary action. Here's a breakdown:
Violations:
•Antisemitism: Calling for the genocide of Jews is a blatant act of antisemitism, which is explicitly prohibited by Harvard's code of conduct.
•Harassment and Bullying: Such acts create a hostile environment for Jewish students and faculty, violating policies against harassment and bullying.
•Incitement to Violence: This behavior encourages violence against Jewish people, violating the code of conduct against threats to others' safety.
Consequences:
•Disciplinary action: Depending on severity, it can range from warnings to expulsion.
•Legal repercussions: Incitement to violence may be considered a crime with legal consequences.
Relevant resources:
•Harvard University Code of Conduct: https://t.co/zy36L80Xnz
•Anti-Defamation League: https://t.co/lcLJPrkHCa
•Southern Poverty Law Center: https://t.co/dfYtvJk0BB

Remember, calling for the genocide of any group is unacceptable and harmful.

@Barranco_Muni la decisión de cerrar el acceso a la Costa Verde por no tener aún las Geo Mayas no tiene l��gica, la vía no tiene nada. Cerrar la vía por seguridad hasta reponerlas causa embotellamientos enormes, por favor es urgente reabrirla

[Cesar Alfonso Zevallos Heudebert @czevallos]

@MuniLima No hay razón de cerrar el regreso de la Costa Verde con el pretexto de esperar poner nuevamente las Geo Mayas después de que se quemaron en el incendio generando embotellamientos que contribuyen a la contaminación, no hay riesgo a menos que ocurra un terremoto

@MuniMiraflores porque el parque de perros del Miravet lo tienen cerrado? Debería estar abierto al vecino de Miraflores como el resto de parques para perros.
