    I’m thinking this might have been a publicity stunt for either her or the glasses. If you see her launch a career from this then you know it was for her, meta wins either way.

      Before facebook even existed a Canadian company was producing contact lens which trsnsmitted light onto the retina to create virtual reality interfaces. They of course had glasses form product as well.

      So discussing big ugly glasses is 30-40 year old tech.

      Keep in mind, VR investment scam has been around forever. But ok tell me why this time is different.

        Just because something has been around for years doesn’t mean manufactures don’t want you talking about their product. Cars…, it has special newer wheels. See how cool they look.

        Phones… Look at the all new improved camera.

        What’s that phrase ,any publicity is good publicity. People are taking about your product and its free and spreading.
