AI recording wearables are quietly listening to everyone in Silicon Valley
sfstandard.comWhy is everyone recording everyone else in San Francisco? Is it legal? And do you consent?
TLDR: Techbros in SF are wearing AI pins that record everything everyone says around them.
“My general sense is that we should assume we are being recorded at all times,” said Clara Brenner, a partner at venture capital firm Urban Innovation Fund. “Of course, this is a horrible way to live your life.”
Damn right it is. Every day one step closer to dystopia. Fuck this shit.

Two party consent laws in California come down to a “reasonable expectation of privacy” and that has been worked out in the legal system over time to be pretty much any place with an open door or window, even a conference room inside a private business is fair game if the door is open to the hallway.
