    A phone in a breast pocket doesn’t look all that out of place, especially if the person has very tight jeans on, but it’s quite effective for filming.

    To be clear, I’m not OP, and I’m not even necessarily saying you are wrong, but as with most things I think our energy is being pointed in the wrong direction. I care more about the governments and corporations with their ability to record and cross reference images and videos from basically everywhere much more than I care about an individuals ability to do so. Even our concerns with an individuals ability to do so are often a result of that individual’s ability to amplify the harmful aspects through the use of one of the aforementioned’s unchecked power.

    If we aren’t afraid to fuck up some people wearing Meta glasses that are being dick heads, then let’s also not be afraid to fuck up the government and corpo forms of it as well.
