    Do you mean the detriments of AI, Flock, and Meta glasses outweigh the price to the consumer?

      Not per se but yes. You’re thinking too big.

      Negative feedback might slow down adaptation but that’s about all that’s going to happen.

      Mark Zuckerberg had to testify in front of congress for the first time about privacy issues back in 2018. That’s almost a decade ago. Look at them now.

      Ticktock, Facebook and Google are all still around and thriving. ChatGPT is the #1 free app in the App Store. Google Chrome is the number one web browser. Genuine question, what tech been stopped because of the detriments?

        Testifying in front of Congress doesn’t mean anything. That’s just a dog & pony show meant to placate the rubes. NOTHING ever happens as a result.

        Look at Tickemaster/ Live Nation. They e had to explain themselves a number of times to Congress over the last 30 years, and they’ve only gotten bigger and more predatory. It finally took all those politicians trying to get Taylor Swift tickets for their screeching daughters that made them angry enough to finally do something about it. They are finally having a trial about it, but it’s still unclear if they’ll feel any consequences or make any changes.

          Testifying in front of congress was more of a reference point. There was such a concern about it almost a decade ago that Zuck had to testify in front of congress which equated to more exposure of the problem. Eight years later and it’s worse than ever. People don’t care if the product provides enough value to them.
