Analysis Summary
Men with Meta Ray-Ban smart glasses are approaching women in public spaces and secretly filming them — beaches, shops, streets — then sharing the videos online without consent. Multiple news outlets including BBC confirm this is a real and growing pattern tied to viral social media trends. The post's joke about 'whether I'm talking about spy glasses or men' adds emotional framing that the core facts don't require, and sidesteps the harder question of what actual legal remedy exists short of a public ban.
