Give A Big F**k You to Privacy with Meta Glasses
Thoughts Off The Stem | Cannabis Infused Comedy0:01
New tech is pretty awesome, right?
The gadgets.
That come from it are pretty cool, but I have a question.
Do the developers and the consumers really think about the problems once it’s released into the wild?
Because I don’t think that they do dude.
I think that consumers are just more concerned about having the latest flashy gadget and developers are more concerned with how that gadget or technology functions.
0:23
Once it’s released, not the real world application.
And the problems that come with it.
Welcome to Thoughts off the Stem.
Thanks for.
Joining the sesh with me, Justin.
Peroni, I hope that life is being good to you.
And if you’re looking to elevate your sesh, visit tots420.com/sesh for my hand picked sesh essentials.
0:41
That’s right, I’m helping you make your sesh.
Better baby.
And this week we’re talking about the technology like meta glasses, Tesla.
Two, you know that that gets released.
That we don’t necessarily think about what the problems.
Are going to be once it’s out there.
0:59
Let’s take meta glasses for.
And for example.
Right.
Once you have them on and they’re on, they’re on.
They see.
Everything dude, and as cool as it would be to like.
Walk through life like you’re in Minority Report or Free Guy and you just, you know, you can like swipe as you’re walking down the street.
1:16
Check your social media, do an e-mail.
Whatever it is, that shit’s pretty cool.
I got it.
I want it too.
But they’re always on, man.
So like.
If you go to shave your balls and you forget.
That you’ve got them on.
Guess what?
That’s going in the meta database, baby your.
1:34
Balls and your technique are there forever.
I remember when I was a kid, because I have a heart condition, I had to use it.
Like I had to wear a halter monitor on checkup sometimes and I was.
Worried and like from the ages of 14 to 18 that the doctors could tell when I, you know, tried to rub.
1:53
One out like because.
Whose heart rate spikes at 10:30 at night when you’re supposed to be sleeping as a 1415 year old?
Yeah, that’s right.
That’s me.
I wasn’t.
Boning anybody but I was worried about it so.
Think about it.
In terms of this, now that technology is wearable, right, Meta glasses are the latest wearable tech, and they’re supposed to like really, you know, move technology forward.
2:20
But if you forget to take one off and you sneak off to go play with your.
Pecker for an hour and those you’ve shot your own POV porn basically right?
How do we not think that this?
Is like it this?
Where are you not worried about this?
2:37
People, when they buy stuff like that don’t.
Think about it.
They don’t think about it at all.
It’s like it’s.
Like back when Tesla first came out and people started the the first generation owners.
Would go in for.
A service.
And they find out that the battery’s dying like it’s a.
2:53
It’s an electronic.
Device and now all of a sudden you have.
A25K Bill because you have to replace your engine.
Like what are we talking about here?
Do people?
Need to think man.
Like if I go buy a car, I’m asking some questions.
I’m asking what the service?
3:08
What the services?
Are what the?
Cost of repairs are.
And whether I should worry about engine, how long it’s going to?
Last, the same thing with electronics, don’t you?
Generally ask like.
Hey, what, how?
What is the like?
What’s the?
The recharge period What?
3:24
Do I need to know for urging this what?
How?
Long is the.
Battery life like.
If you buy a Tesla.
Which is basically a large piece of electronic.
Equipment aren’t isn’t that like one of the first things that you’re going to ask?
You think they’re?
Just going to give you a.
Free engine, like you can’t go to Ford with the OR I mean Ford with a Mustang.
3:41
OK, and and.
Go Oh my engine blew.
Can you give me a new one?
No, you’ve got to buy a new engine.
Like nobody asked this, nobody thought about it, nobody.
Nobody took.
Into account.
That this was happening right and now.
People aren’t.
Taking into account when you.
Buy things like.
3:57
Meta glasses, they’re always.
Recording man, they record.
Everything you do, that’s fucking terrifying.
It’s terrifying as as a person that like if I see somebody walking down the street, they’re recording to me, maybe I’m doing something I shouldn’t do.
You can.
I don’t like the idea that we are in.
4:14
Minority Report, dude, we’re going to start.
Getting ping for crimes as people walk down the street.
It’s crazy.
It’s crazy.
It’s crazy dude.
You forget about the fact that you you know that these things are all all have components that die and suffer or.
4:38
Components that record.
Constantly and then.
We, we don’t think about the problem that happens later on once it’s being used on a regular basis.
Like for example, you know, you go into Tesla, you can’t figure out why the why the battery died.
4:53
And they thought, well, that’s just the end of the life of the battery.
Well, what about?
This OK?
You wear meta glasses.
All of a sudden one day you walk into work and everybody’s staring at you.
They’re snickering and they’re.
Laughing because you.
And your.
Partner, we’re having a little bit of amateur bedroom fun time and you forgot to take the glasses off.
5:12
Well, now all of a sudden you have a.
You have an.
Amateur POV porn video on Pornhub.
Great.
You got to think about these things and that’s why I say like developers are really good at developing the products.
5:29
They’re good at developing the technology.
But they kind of suck at people.
Like they don’t really think about all the things that people are going to do and.
And how people.
Are going to use it and the fact that people forget.
That they’re wearing.
These things because glasses, if you’re, if you wear glasses or a hat even, like anything, sometimes you don’t.
5:47
You don’t think?
About having it on.
You forget it becomes natural, becomes.
Regular.
That you forget that these things are on and recording every.
Movement, you know.
Dude and consumers don’t think about the the end result long run situation like consumers.
6:05
Get pissed off because like, well this is doing this and I didn’t know it.
Would do that if you.
Buy a camera.
That is.
Connected to the Internet, whether it’s on a laptop.
Whether it’s whatever, OK, Bluetooth, whatever it is.
You can pretty much.
Guarantee that.
6:21
In some way, somehow, somebody can get in that and start recording.
Whatever that camera sees.
So if you buy met a glass of wood, is there just supposed to be like a magical switch within it that goes Oh my God nudity off?
I mean, maybe.
That’s actually a good idea.
But consumers don’t think about that because they want the flashiest thing they want to show off to their friends.
6:38
They want to be.
The cool.
Dude in the group, you know, it’s kind of fucked up, dude.
It’s fucked up that we think about that.
We don’t think about those things, even though we should.
Because.
Even though it’s technology and it’s relatively new.
The the the.
Standard like questions and practices and purchasing things.
6:56
Purchasing products.
Of any kind should still apply, and as a consumer you should still be aware and thinking about it.
You shouldn’t just run out.
And go, oh, everything’s just going to work peachy there’s.
Always like Tesla batteries.
Are dying, people didn’t know when.
They bought the Tesla that they had to get a new.
A new engine, essentially, right?
7:13
And they come in and now they’re all pissed off.
Well, like the.
The the.
Developers and.
The and the companies that make these.
Things should probably.
Put in very large print like we have.
Warning labels on.
You know, like what?
Like ingredients and and whether.
7:30
Things are toxic for you, Maybe we need to start doing that at the top of every.
Product like sheet when you’re when you’re buying it, it should be in bold like hey.
These are the things that you can do with it, but also remember.
Turn it off.
7:47
You know, I just think it’s funny, man.
I think it’s funny because consumers, people don’t think about that and then.
They get all riled up when it happens and they can’t, they can’t figure out or they don’t understand that, you know, they have kind of, they have responsibility.
8:04
To know these things I also.
Think that the companies that produce them also have a responsibility to explain to the to the buyer that hey like this could happen.
Right.
And I know that not everybody.
Is going to read the fine print or read a a contract or anything like that but.
8:19
At the same time there should.
Be some level of hey.
Just pay attention to this although.
You know, if you’re recording something.
With your face, you’d think that that would be.
A thought that you have in your head that like I shouldn’t keep this on all the time and if my wife is in the bathroom butt ass naked, maybe I take the glasses off and point them out of wall.
8:42
So this week’s weed facts.
That’s right, this week we have some weed facts.
Are about technology.
That helps with hang on here.
Let me just see because I forgot what it was.
Weed facts.
That help with.
8:58
That.
It’s the newest tech available to help determine cannabis impairment.
That’s right, cannabis consumer attention cannabis consumer.
So this week’s Weed Facts.
Are from.
A site called.
Tobywithtwoeyes.com and it’s called the articles called.
9:17
Guarding sober roads and workplaces, basically.
What this?
Is is new technology in VR?
Headset that allows.
Police to do better roadside inebriation tests or under the influence.
9:37
Tests basically this.
Company Toby makes.
A software that.
Detects eye movement and and eye function to determine whether or not you’re under the influence.
9:54
At the moment of cannabis.
And other substances.
So this is what the article said, the effects of THC.
Are not easily quantifiable through to, through to.
Traditional chemical tests since the amount of THC in the body is not correlated with impairment.
10:13
So basically what that means is you could take you could smoke weed on a Friday and still test positive.
On a Sunday.
But it doesn’t necessarily.
Mean that you’re under the influence at the time.
So THC and its.
Metabolites can remain.
In the body for an extended period, making it impossible to determine if impairment is current, currently being experienced, or if someone has just simply used cannabis previously.
10:37
Officers have tested for impairment using a battery of physical and eye movement tests, while the tests they use have been shown to accurately detect impairment.
Human error and.
Subject and subjectivity are common arguments.
Against their use.
The accuracy.
10:53
Of the assessment by drug recognition.
Officers is typically around 60 to 80. 5% so you get a lot of, you know, human factor, human error in that.
Because like, I mean, realistically you could also.
Have people that have a bias and then they just decide because you’re a sketchy individual or you have, you know, ADHD or some shit and you’re not paying attention, that you’re under the influence when you’re not actually under the influence.
11:16
So Gaze is a software company dedicated to accurately assessing impairment for the purpose of SAFE.
Driving and working and working enforcement.
So not only are they going to use this for like police.
Officers and stuff, but it’s also a way.
For people that work in industrial, in the industrial industry to, to make sure that the people that drive their heavy equipment and all that fun stuff are not under the influence at work, right or while they’re operating these machines.
11:45
So at the heart of its innovation.
Is their impairment testing platform a?
Rapid and portable.
Automated.
Detection Detection system specifically designed to recognize the effects of cannabis, alcohol, opiates, and.
Other drug impairment.
The gaze solution.
12:00
Runs the same.
Eye test that police officers.
Do in an automated fashion using AVR headset.
With the help of.
Toby Eye tracking and Toby Ocumen.
These tests include a high precision ocular motion and pupillary reflex analysis measuring subtle changes in eye.
12:18
Movement that indicate.
Impairment.
See, so you’re going to it’s.
Like you’re playing, you know, like.
If you’re impaired and you get pulled over and you got to put one of these.
VR things on.
And it’s scanning your eyes.
Dude, I don’t know, it’s going to take some time for the public to like, I feel like even if you’re not high, your eyes may.
12:35
React that way, but maybe not.
If you want, you can read the article, it’s on top. 4. 20.com in the weed fact section.
So this software, the gaze.
Solution stuff it.
Boasts a 98% accuracy.
12:51
In detecting that ended in.
Detecting the same signs of impairment that law enforcement.
Officers look for.
So basically it’s obviously.
It takes it takes the error away from it.
Now obviously we all know that programs can have problems.
But people can also have.
13:06
Problems programs tend to have less problems.
I think your bigger problem is deleting that thing by accident or having to redo it, but it makes it.
I guess it makes.
It’s supposed to make the.
Officer’s job easier and then?
Help with, you know, the actual like court proceedings and stuff like that because it will become admissible as as evidence to prove versus, you know, the officer himself, the individual trying to prove it.
13:34
So, yeah, so that’s the way the technology’s going.
And that is one of the ways that at least law enforcement is trying to crack down on impairment.
Attaching terrorist consumer.
13:52
If you’re going to get meta glasses, I would say that you should probably read the user.
Manual it may.
Be the one thing on the planet that you should absolutely read the user manual.
Because here’s the thing.
OK, not only is it.
14:10
Recording whatever you’re.
Doing it’s it’s saving, downloading.
And and keeping a.
Record on meta services.
Of what it sees.
So if you and your wife were trying to have or you and your partner, we’re trying to have some happy time, fun time and you.
14:30
Thought you.
Were in the privacy of your own home.
But you had on your meta glasses.
Guess what?
Meta.
Sees how you do it.
There are.
Literally people out there looking for.
Going through all of the data that comes from these glasses.
14:48
Now this has.
Also caused Meta to catch a lawsuit from at least two people in the US and a bunch of countries are now investigating it because.
How as a company?
That, you know, is supposed to follow privacy laws.
15:06
How are you?
Going to now defy.
All of those privacy laws.
And have have people’s most.
Personal Personal moments saved on a.
Server like.
I don’t want to, you know, make any assumptions about Mark Zuckerberg and Meta AI, but like sounds to me like there may be a little bit of a perv situation going on because why would you want to keep that data?
15:32
Shouldn’t it have?
Shouldn’t it have a like set parameter for the type of data that it stores?
Not just everything like, oh, my Dick fell out.
Look at that like if you’re.
At a ball game and you’re wearing meta glasses, right?
And you go to the urinal and you go to take a leak.
You now have 50 Dicks.
15:48
A video of 50 Dicks on your on your meta.
Glasses and Zuckerberg is just like yeah filed out under D for big Dick or BD for big Dicks.
Like.
You got to be kidding me.
So this week’s dude for.
Real segment is.
All.
16:05
About the revolt, I guess from from employees of Meta and a couple.
Of the.
Consumers against Meta.
Glasses dude.
For real.
For real, dude.
So this week’s dude.
16:20
For Real segment comes from boardpanda.com and.
The article’s called Meta Workers reveal some of the disturbing things they’ve.
Seen through user smart.
Glasses.
That’s right, like I told you.
They’re recording you always, as if.
16:36
CCTV wasn’t.
Enough and being able to look through.
Laptops wasn’t enough or whatever, you know.
Like now they’re actually giving you a product that essentially spies on you because you forget about it.
And you don’t turn it off.
And you you don’t do what you should do as a.
16:51
As a as a, you know, educated consumer, that’s right.
SO2US citizens have filed a lawsuit.
In San Francisco against Meta.
Over consumer privacy violations.
The lawsuit accuses.
Mark Zuckerberg’s company of false.
17:06
Advertising and disregarding privacy laws?
No shit.
It still gets me bad.
Like you’re sitting there watching like I get, OK, So even if let’s say.
You didn’t do this accidentally.
Let’s say that, you know, some people like to film their own home videos.
17:23
You know what I’m saying?
Let’s say you did this on purpose.
That video is still on.
Like you.
There’s no more days of like, Oh my God, I sold the sex tape at a garage sale.
There’s Oh my God, Mark Zuckerberg has my sex tape immediately.
Like you may as well just be a straight line to that shit, you know?
17:41
So Kenyan subcontractor that that basically reviews.
All of the.
Data the employees of that company.
Blew.
The whistle on Meta’s alleged privacy breach.
So in some videos, this is what, this is what 1 employee said.
17:56
They’re all anonymous because obviously they’re worried about their jobs.
But in some videos you can see someone going to the toilet.
Or getting undressed.
I don’t think they know because if they knew they wouldn’t be recording, another said.
I saw a video where a man puts the glasses on the bedside table and then leaves the room shortly afterwards his wife.
18:15
Comes in and changes her clothes now.
Like dude.
Come on, there’s got to be like a safety switch, you know, like.
I don’t know.
There’s got to be a way for it.
Like if if there’s got to be like a motion like you can shake your phone.
And send a problem.
Report to Instagram, right?
18:31
Can you not?
Remove your glasses.
And send an off report.
Like what?
Are we talking about here?
One data monitor warned.
We see.
Everything bro.
From living rooms to naked bodies.
Meta has that type of.
18:46
Content in its.
Databases people can record themselves in the wrong way.
And not even know what they’re recording.
It’ll imagine you’re texting OK and.
You text something.
That, you know, might be worrisome to like public safety or.
19:03
Committing a crime?
It sees that too.
Like dude, this is exactly minority Minority report, man.
I would be worried.
I’m not buying that shit.
It’s right up there with.
Like Neuralink?
Oh my God, you want to have a thing in your head that’s going to record everything you do and see?
19:19
You got to be fucking kidding me.
Why?
Why?
Why?
Are we doing this?
I get love and tech but it just seems like this.
Is all kinds of problems.
And terrifying at the same time.
Another.
Another.
Person said you.
Understand that it’s someone’s private.
19:34
Life that you’re looking at.
But at the same time.
You’re just expected to carry out the work.
You’re not support.
You’re not supposed to.
Question it because.
You might lose your job, that’s what That’s what these.
Like the?
Bosses and the supervisor there.
You can’t even be like, hey, this is wrong.
19:51
And the Super I like fuck you, then I’ll find someone else that’ll do.
It it’s almost.
Like, you know, in the military, like you.
Maybe you don’t.
Want to drop the bomb?
Maybe you don’t.
Want to be.
The remote pilot of a drone that’s going to kill 100,000 people or whatever it is, but there’s another dude that’s just going to take that seat because they need the money.
20:07
It’s the same as this.
And even though there’s like this, you know, pretty solid.
Data breach privacy issue or not data breach privacy issue right you you’d think that they would you know, kind of flip the script on it a bit and be like let’s.
20:22
Be very careful.
Nope, not matter.
Matter is like, you get that shit in there and you record it.
I don’t care what you see, just watch it like.
Jesus Christ, so.
Matter is being investigated by the governments of multiple.
Countries.
And now they’re being dubbed the Pervert Glasses.
Yeah, that’s right, dude.
20:39
For real.
For real, dude.
So the moral of the story for this week?
Is pretty simple.
Actually be.
Educated on the.
Technology that you buy.
Understand what it does, what its capabilities are, and know what you’re getting into before the before your your freshly shorn nut sack or your adult activities end up on a Meta server that Mark Zuckerberg and his cronies and.
21:10
His buddies.
Can look for can like pull up at the drop of a hat, you know, just.
Oh, I want to see.
Hairy nuts.
You know, and then there it is.
And he could show all his buddies.
So just think about that.
Think about when you’re buying a Tesla or any electric car, you’re going to have to replace the battery at some point.
21:30
So you may as well understand what the maintenance costs are.
Just think about it the with.
The rise of technology and the evolution of of AI and and.
All the the cool gadgets that were that are supposed to help us evolve as a as a human.
Race, you know.
21:46
We should still be.
Concerned and.
Worried and think about and, and, and know what we’re getting into because we need to, we need to, we need to keep our privacy private.
I know that in this day and age, that’s very hard to do, But I don’t think that, you know, I don’t think that it’s a, it’s a good idea to start implanting or putting on things that record your every move and every action because like, I don’t know, that just seems, that just seems common sense to me.
22:17
That’s what I think and those are my thoughts off the stem for this week.
I hope you enjoyed the sesh.
I hope you come back next week with me, Justin Peroni on thoughts off the stem.
Oh I’ve also I also started a new merch store so check out.
Tots 4/20.
Dot com.
Shop go to TOTS 4. 20.com in the menu you’ll see a shop button.
22:41
Hit the shop button and you can get some official TOTS merch.
That’s right.
And yeah, until next time as I use my.
Electronic device to.
Get my weed going.
Keep your lids low, baby.
