- Online backlash against Meta Glasses has intensified, with critics labeling wearers as 'creepy' or 'perverts,' leading to discussions on platforms like Bluesky and Threads.
- Users, including creators and photographers, report using the glasses less frequently due to public perception, fear of being judged, or concerns about privacy and misuse by others.
- Meta has responded with a mandatory software update to disable the camera if the LED light is tampered with and is taking legal action against services promoting such hacks.
- Despite backlash, Meta sold over 7 million glasses in 2025, with new models launched, but sustained privacy concerns could impact future adoption.
