Definitely Not Recording!

Definitely Not Recording!
When someone asks if you're recording during a meeting and you're wearing smart glasses with a camera built into them. Nothing says "totally not recording" like answering "No" while sporting what's essentially a surveillance device on your face. This hits different in the tech world where we're all pretending we're not building the dystopian future one API call at a time. The irony is delicious: we spend our days implementing telemetry, logging everything users do, and then act shocked when people don't trust our "No" when we're literally wearing cameras on our heads. Fun fact: Those recording indicator lights on devices? Yeah, they're software-controlled. Sleep well tonight.

Meta releases smart glasses with hidden cameras that can secretly record people, and someone's immediate response is "I want a shirt with a QR code that installs malware to brick anyone's phone who tries to film me." That's some next-level defensive programming right there. Instead of just asking people not to record, we're going straight for the nuclear option: weaponized QR codes that turn phones into expensive paperweights. The "Modern day Medusa" comment is *chef's kiss* because instead of turning people to stone by looking at them, you're bricking their devices by being looked at. It's like implementing a reverse Denial of Service attack where the attacker becomes the victim. The irony? Meta's already been collecting your data for years through their apps, but NOW everyone's worried about cameras in glasses. Where was this energy when we all installed Facebook Messenger? The real programmer move here is treating privacy invasion as an API vulnerability and patching it with malicious payload delivery via QR code scanning. It's basically SQL injection for the physical world.
