Its not doing anything with my day. Don’t have one, don’t want one.
I don’t need recaps; I was literally there.
You will once you’ve got permanent brain fog from super Covid.
Who is dumb enough to think they want or need this? We’re all aware that this is just more data collection, right?
You would be surprised. Perhaps astonished. Certainly dismayed.
No thanks
Is this even legal in the eu?
It will be with the right bribes

Coming soon! The iWatch U
Their Israeli R&D center hard at work
is this for people with Alzheimers? do people not remember what they did through the day or need more granuality? took a shit vs took a shit fron 9:05:47 to 9:35:48 vs did i shit today ?
Who wants a recap of their day?
“You woke up at 7:22am!”
“You played stardew valley in bed for 14 hours!”
“You took minor chickie mcnuggie breaks twice today!”Ideal day tbh
Damn, this day sounds awesome.
Are you watching me through a camera rn???
On your LG TV, yes.
We all are
I just use a Garmin and gadget bridge. I don’t bother connecting it to the internet or using it to look at text messages.
I have a fenix 6 and honestly it’s totally worth it. I plan to actually get whatever the new one is so I can ditch having a phone all the time. (call/sms/sat/gps)
Gadget bridge does have that functionality though.
I have a Garmin Instinct 3 but not familiar with gadget bridge. Need to look into that.
Apple seems really focused on preventing the audio from making it off the device.
Which fine, I believe they’ll make that very difficult. Apple has engineering chops.
But it’s not the fucking point. I ALSO don’t want every watchhole around me making transcriptions of anything I say within earshot of whoever wears one. Which will be way less noticeable than even smart glasses. Say goodbye to having an unrecorded conv in most public places.
The whitewashing of the privacy probs with this is galling.
Once the technology is implemented and ubiquitous it would only take a secret government mandate and a gag order for the code to be altered to listen for particular words and phrases and log them
And its all closed source and propretieary. So no one would know.
I was reading up on that and how they plan on processing it in the Secure Enclave part of the watch. My only concern though is as you move more stuff into the enclave, the bigger the attack surface for the entire enclave becomes. And then at what point is more working being done in the enclave than the rest of the watch basically becoming a useless demarcation of security.
It’s processed in an exclave, not the secure enclave
And some places still have policies that don’t allow you to record audio.
I don’t consent to any iWatch recording me
You have to forward this to seven people for it to be true.
I have the perfect timepiece. It tells the time and that’s it. It syncs to atomic time so it’s always accurate and charges by solar so it’s never dead. It has no transmitter or audio capabilities.
Hey! Mine not only tells the time, but also the day of the week and month, and has an integrated alarm clock and stopwatch. Battery lasts for seven years, keeps time to within a few minutes per year, is cheap enough so that I don’t mind wearing it when I’m cycling as I can just replace it if I break it, and it has a celebrity endorsement. Of sorts, anyway.

CASIO the Nokias of watches
Yeah no kidding. My calculator watch still works to this day. I did have one of those moments where a math teacher said the classic “you won’t have a calculator in your pocket” and I though that’s right, I have one on my wrist.
From Casio even in 1984, with TOUCHSCREEN where you could write the numbers to calculate, Casio AT-552 Janus or the TC600 from 1980 with touchscreen keyboard. Way ahead of their time.
wow… before I was even born lol
I don’t buy Apple products, so no, they won’t, heh
…unless, of course, you’re close to a person who wears one of these. then you still get spied on yaaaaayyyyy
and unlike the meta glasses, these look the same as any apple watch, which have already been normalized in society. so shunning people for wearing these won’t work cuz you won’t be able to tell. i love the future this is so COOL
Like a plan get something accepted then make it spy on you.
I know… i was being tongue-in-cheek.
I need to find a way to build a handheld rf jammer
Careful, federal crime there.
Apparently so is marijuana smoking!

Share the plans 😂
This is the way
