@Voline why change the adjective? There are pervert glasses, & there are pervert watches. The lack of consent is the perversion.

@Voline The nickname stuck because it's technically accurate: Meta turned AI on by default in April 2025, removed the opt-out for voice storage, and keeps recordings up to a year — none of which is obvious when you open the box.

Or better, if you're in the market for an Apple watch, let them know you want an older model because of this snooping garbage.And
But don't just tell the sales person - that won't do anything. Tell Apple corporate.

My favorite part of that moniker is that the accompanying photo is invariably of zuck wearing them. -
