I've been seeing this debate come up more frequently of late. My only question to those people who think that banning the Smart Glasses are anti-disabled or whatever. What do you think is the solution? There are maybe at most a couple thousand people with the resources and desire to use the smart glasses, per country possibly less. Compared to hundreds of thousands of able-body people who have the potential to use it negatively. Not to mention *all* of the META glasses coming attached with the Zuck-baggage. So, are we going to let such a potentially dangerous thing go unchecked just because something something ableism? Or are we going to actually provide a working solution?

The idiots can't be allowed to win this one. The disability organizations sure do need to do some positive PR on this issue!
