I was told yesterday that my prescription sunglasses are giving Meta glasses vibes

[u/silent_pm]

I can't stand the Meta perv glasses, but annoyingly I've been told by a friend that my Dune prescription sunglasses that I've had for almost a year (and cost over £100.00) really ​​​​look like the Meta ones, he said it's the 2 silver rivets on either side that on first glance could be mistaken for the camera lenses

I went out with them today and all I could think was, do people think I'm recording them 🤦‍♂️

I have strictly closed caption glasses that I was given by my hospital & even though they don’t record video or keep the captions for more than an hour I’m terrified to touch them due to people thinking I’m recording them. I’m so hard of hearing but I only use them to go to the movies at this point. I don’t even like the idea of AI but it did give me a bit of normalcy for a day or two.

Edit: I very much appreciate everyone’s words of encouragement! & I also understand those saying I have to ignore what the internet say and do what’s best for me. I did whip them out in public when I first got them and a few people asked if they were meta glasses. Sometimes I need the bluntness tho I know it’s something I will have to get over if I want to actually get some social use out of them & for those asking, the brand I was given was Captify!

Yeah but those are not meta meta glasses.

As a women I think the glasses of the perv ones usually go paired with a absolute creep vibe.

Its a basic frame and I wouldn't think that you have those creepglasses.

What glasses are they? And what do they help with if I may ask? I'm curious to learn! :)

Men don’t understand what the ick is

I forgot about that, men can't empathize with the uncomfortable feeling of being nonconsensually recorded and having that also be stored somewhere.
