welcome to episode 99.
this week we discuss the use of smart glasses, in particular the meta glasses in relation to blind people using them for legitimate reasons, and the unfortunately bad people using them for ill-gotten gains.
while andre uses them to record audio and video from some of his gigs, the time he drove a car or family days out, others have found ways to disable the recording light, record people without consent and use them for facial recognition of complete strangers which is naturally causing concern and consternation.the article that sparked this episode: ''antizuck' ios app that claims to detect nearby smart glasses tops app store chart - 9to5mac' https://9to5mac.com/2026/07/31/antizuck-ios-app-that-claims-to-detect-nearby-smart-glasses-tops-app-store-chart/

Welcome to episode 95.
This week we discuss the idea of 'Stranger Danger', how to keep our young ones safe and out of harm, and how different it is teaching them in today's landscape of not just people on the street, but people online also. AI and deep-fakes can enhance a feeling of familiarity and safety that we've never seen before, so it's even harder to make sure they stay safe and out of harm's way.
