in the podcast they mentioned an app that scans for them and my partner asked me to find the app. I guess it may interest some people here ☞

The app, called Nearby Glasses, has one sole purpose: Look for smart glasses nearby and warn you.

It uses company identificators in the Bluetooth data sent out by these.

You can buy camera glasses which work with a micro-SD. No bluetooth, no lights, just records. Just sayin'.

I assume this is what the true pervs use to film some of the creepier stuff.

Honestly thinking of buying a pair, to creep on the popo. They don't like being filmed, best to do it covertly.
