Ray-Ban is choosing to produce these in a partnership. They don't have to participate and by doing so they're guaranteeing they exist and profiting from the bad behavior. And even making them more stylish and therefore more appealing.

A "reasonable adult" would have no trouble understanding why someone who thinks the existence of these glasses is a moral and privacy nightmare would also seek to punish Ray-Ban.

Reminds me of this: https://www.theguardian.com/us-news/2016/oct/17/billy-bush-f...

Donald Trump - becomes president, after all it was just “locker room talk”

Billy Bush - career destroyed for passively chuckling
