Do Meta employees even like their own Meta glasses? (In collaboration with @bitsoffreedom )
Replying to @Roelmaalderink@mastodon.social
@Roelmaalderink @bitsoffreedom its cool but why are you harrasing employees? xD their work is already shit as they work for META.
Its kind of like going to Booking and asking: "How do you like sponsoring genocide?!!".
I think it would be better if you hunt for manager of whole META branch or something. Regular employees work for money just as we all do.

They work for META, fully knowing what kind of company it is they work for, don't they? "Working for money" doesn't mean they are not complicit.
Replying to @sibrosan@mastodon.social
@sibrosan @Roelmaalderink @bitsoffreedom and this gives you permission to harass them? What if they are not proud of their work and only do it for money as there is no other job on the market?

What do you mean "harass them"
The guy simply uses the product that their employer markets to the public, within their employer's guidelines for it.
Do you somehow suggest that this is not perfectly all right?
Replying to @sibrosan@mastodon.social
@sibrosan @Roelmaalderink @bitsoffreedom I see you still try to turn this into some kind of a joke but Im not joking. This is harassement and its not funny.
He recorded vulnerable employees and I think its pathetic.

A: Kanker op, kut. Als ik kinderen heb, hebben zij eten nodig, terwijl jij probeert mijn persoonlijkheid te gebruiken voor views op TikTok.

Je reden om die vergelijking te maken is dat je aanneemt dat ik het net zo verkeerd vind als jij om Amazon-employees aan te spreken op het morele aspect van hun werk voor Amazon?

@grayrattus @sibrosan @Roelmaalderink @bitsoffreedom Are you realising the Problem? If this one Video is harassment, what are those PervGlasses as product for our society? AI based corporate mass surveillance for marketing, AI Training and collaboration with Law Enforcement.

@fckusa @sibrosan @Roelmaalderink @bitsoffreedom I understand the problem pretty well and I also understand that such actions dont make any impact other than they give you small spark of joy when you scroll the feed of your social network.
If you want to change something, protest in front of government buildings and meta headquarters. Dont haras employees. Focus on people who make decisions.
Replying to @grayrattus@mastodon.social
@grayrattus @sibrosan @Roelmaalderink @bitsoffreedom I agree on the protest with focus on the governments but even if every nation regulates this tech there won't be a coherent rulebook. We need to pressure every level of this industry accordingly to their role in this technology and employees working for Zuckerberg are a part of it. One of the minor parts but still. So I'm fine with this action. It's ok if you have your own view on that.

You mean *in your opinion* it is harassment and not funny.
I think that, to the extent that it can be considered harassment, it is not undeserved, since those people work for META, and moreover I find the videoclip both enlightening and funny.

@sibrosan @grayrattus @Roelmaalderink @bitsoffreedom What would you say you learned from watching this video?

@prism @grayrattus @Roelmaalderink @bitsoffreedom
That the intended use of the pervert glasses that META sells constitutes, in general, a gross violation of people's privacy, even if the company pretends it's just a harmless, fun product, and that even META's own employees are painfully aware of that, when confronted with someone using it in their presence.
Replying to @grayrattus@mastodon.social
@grayrattus @sibrosan @Roelmaalderink @bitsoffreedom I don't think these were the cleaning staff. Quite a difference between actual compensated developers and low wage Amazon workers which you're defending in a follow-up post.
If you want to instigate change, you need to poke at all different levels. Indeed not _just_ these minions, but _also_. When more people feel the hypocrisy in their work, they can bring about a shift for the better, if only ever so slightly.
