I get address not found.

Edit: I can access the site through Tor. Yay for censorship circumvention!

A .60 cent mod (tape) will do the same thing.

No it won't. There's a sensor that detects covering the LED.

This is the 3rd or 4th comment about this (across the Threadiverse) - why don't people ask why this costs $60 - and then go and find out? It's right fucking there in the article (before the paywall, even).

I'm going to be honest, I don't really give a shit about meta or their shitty glasses so I never bothered to look into it and I'm still not going to bother now either.

That being said I still appreciate the correction.

This is why I enjoy Lemmy; homie sticks to their point but thanks stranger for the correction. Respectful, I appreciate that.

I said Threadiverse because as far as I know none of the threads I looked at came from anywhere except Lemmy and Piefed.

So prying off the protective glass, drilling out the LED, and filling the void with resin, like this creep demonstrates. With electrical tape covering the LED, it seems creeps are required to block the camera sensor, for roughly one second after initiating video recording: as the photodiode value next to the LED is compared to brightness of the camera sensor; so by temporarily matching the two, Meta's plausible deniability mechanism can be bypassed.
