@vowe I wondered if Ray Ban were historically a choice for perverts and fuck me they make a range called predator

@vowe also they are water proof and fireproof, you can just test the lighter on cameras to see how impressive it is

@vowe also from israeli product checker:
"Yes, botcott!
Ray-Ban is a brand of EssilorLuxottica
EssilorLuxottica has invested in Israel by acquiring Nuance Hearing, a Tel Aviv-based startup. This is not its first in Israel. In 2010, the company acquired a 50% stake in Shamir Optical, an optical lens manufacturer in Kibbutz Shamir, Upper Galilee, for $130 million, and later purchased the remaining 50% in 2022."https://masjidalaqsa.com/israeli-product-checker-boycott-list

How about dabbing a bit of silver nitrate solution on the camera lens and exposing the glasses to sunlight? Puts a lovely layer of solid black over the lens! -

@harrysentonbury @vowe Almost everything eyeglasses-related is a brand of EssilorLuxottica. Good luck with that boycott.

@vowe will that destroy the camera stuff? I have no idea how microwaves and electronics interact.

This would make a great Instagram post.
@jumpingjackrussell @vowe No it wouldn't. Don't copy this post to Instagram. Under no circumstances. Don't even think about doing it. Everybody will hate you.

There's a campaign against these glasses, who have a great sticker, but also a good discussion on proper use cases for people with visual impairments. See:

I put my Meta Raybans in for a minute and half because it's only 1100 watts rather than 1500.
It's important to know the power of your microwave so you know how long they'll take.
