I love how they put a pic of “Epstein File Mark” in the article ;)

I know it’s a hot-take… But how about we (Earth) ban smart glasses.

This isn’t wise for the sole reason that they really are a great benefit to the visually impaired.

Right now the tech is super useful, being able to read small text out loud and differentiate similar objects that certain conditions make difficult. However, the tech has the potential to do so much more.

Banning it now would be like slapping a whole lot of disabled people in the face.
