TL;DR: you now need to pay a $20/month “meta premium” subscription to use a 100% offline feature that runs on your own malware-ridden smartglasses.
If you don’t subscribe, you can use the feature that is already included in the hardware that you already paid for 3 hours each month
The now-paywalled feature boosts the voice of the speaker in front of you, something that even low-end ANC earphones are doing now. 5 minutes of free usage per day is basically nothing.


Interesting insight of course. I can’t imagine being a teacher right now, having to keep up with these things. You’re basically forced to become a techie in some ways, when before, many teachers really had no reason or need to learn tech stuff. I guess they had other cheating methods to keep up with, but man, these cheating tools are just evolving so fast these days.
