Don't forget, Facebook (Meta) owns 3% of Ray-Ban's parent Luxottica group [1]. They clearly are exerting control over the future direction.

Regardless of what THEY do, what WE as consumers can do is to permanently brand these awful glasses as "pervert glasses" [2] and publicly shame them. I'm here for it.

I didn't know about Meta's ownership. I would love to see some internal discussion if Ray-Ban pushed back and was overridden and forced to make the product.
