DuckDuckGo's answer to Meta's smart glasses is regular sunglasses
DuckDuckGo, the privacy-focused search engine, is now selling $35 sunglasses that are just sunglasses—no camera, no app, no internet. The obvious jab at Meta's $379 smart glasses frames the launch as a commentary on surveillance, but critics call it a marketing stunt. The glasses, made by Knockaround, are polarised with UV protection but are otherwise an ordinary accessory.
