    Apple reportedly working on creepware, aka surveillance glasses and other AI-enabled always-on devices.

    Not sure how Apple squares these products with its long-standing stance that, "Privacy is a fundamental human right."

      @zackwhittaker it is a fundamental right! They’re the only big tech company that doesn’t seem to poorly handle personal data. Are Google and Meta any better when it comes to data privacy?

        @zackwhittaker Apple is a corporation and as such, doesn't have a stance, that was a marketing slogan. No more.

              @zackwhittaker It changed my thinking about Vision Pro (which was somewhere along the lines of "useless and expensive") when I heard from blind people who were able to use it to cook from a recipe. I can't read the article -- not a Bloomberg subscriber. However, I can imagine ways that this could work with privacy preservation: E.g., if facial recognition only worked for people in mutual contact lists. That might be really helpful as an assistive device? I am not saying "give Apple the benefit of the doubt." They burned that when they banned the ICE reporting apps. But I can think of a way that it could work and respect privacy.

                @zackwhittaker Jesus Jobs has long passed away, so no more rights to the peasants.
