  The report pointed to, per the translation, a “stream of privacy-sensitive data that is fed straight into the tech giant’s systems,” and that makes Sama workers uncomfortable. The authors said that several people interviewed for the report said they have seen footage shot with Ray-Ban Meta smart glasses that shows people having sex and using the bathroom.

  “I saw a video where a man puts the glasses on the bedside table and leaves the room. Shortly afterwards, his wife comes in and changes her clothes,” an anonymous Sama employee reportedly said, per the machine translation.

  Another anonymous employee said that they have seen users’ partners come out of the bathroom naked.

  Yeah, devices like this really should be designed to do most work locally or on connected phones and only send data to the cloud when necessary. But then they wouldn’t be able to farm the data for tracking, advertising, and “AI” training, which is where they make their money on these kinds of devices.
