So it’s not anti-pervert then. It’s just non-pervert.
Anti-pervert would be something like sunglasses that zap the pervert sunglasses’ cameras with lasers and damage the sensor. Maybe they don’t have to be so accurate.
Maybe a sort of anti pervert mesh network where gamma radiation is fired in the direction of whoever wears pervert glasses and eventually kills them with cancer.
It’s incredibly irresponsible and would have unintended consequences for otherwise innocent people but it would technically work so capitalism says ship it before China does!
The real move would be to include polarized lenses or a holographic coating to block infrared facial ID cameras like Flock. Because most sunglasses don’t block the infrared spectrum, meaning something like a Flock camera can see right through them.
These are basically just a dad joke, based on the fact that meta has made every other pair of sunglasses “anti-pervert sunglasses” by default.
Sooooo not anti-pervert and a generic publicity stunt. Haha please laugh etc. Don’t have anything against DDG but can only roll my eyes at something like this
Right. Anti-pervert glasses would at least require some lasers to meet the requisite qualifications.
I mean, I’m not gonna buy them, but I still enjoy the dad joke.
Sometimes corny is fun
I have only read the title but this just seems like… Normal glasses then?
Yep. Just normal, AliBaba sunglasses.
Is DuckDuckGo going down the DBrand/Wendy’s model of irreverent, self aware marketing? I’m pretty tired of it being honest. Also, are they actually trying to make money from this? A satirical social media post would get the point across. But they’re actually selling these for some reason.
Some company just placed DDG logo on existing model of glasses and is selling them for exact same price as a joke. It’s not like DDG started manufacturing glasses specifically for this joke.
You make it sound like DDG aren’t involved at all. They very much are.
It’s not like DDG started manufacturing glasses specifically for this joke.
No, it’s like DDG started selling glasses specifically for this joke.
We have Ray-Ban glasses.
Ray-Ban is owned by Essilor-Luxottica, a truly evil conglomerate. Worse on Purpose has an excellent piece about them that is well worth everyoneʻs time to read.
$39 is probably still a huge markup.
They’re barely making back the research costs of producing sunglasses without a lithium-polymer battery or a 12 megapixel CMOS camera.
THE ABOVE COMMENT IS SARCASM.
