    Great use of tech and knowledge. Video-recording glasses wearers can’t complain about this because they are sending the Bluetooth signals to be detected.

    We need to scale this idea up - apps to detect the known types of signals emitting from camera systems like Flock, Ring, and other similar mass surveillance garbage.

      Not legal but if you have a phone or dongle capable of packet injection you could probably deauth Ring devices automatically as soon as you are close enough to pick up their MAC address.

      I assume they still record locally so unless you plan on stealing it it’ll just be a minor annoyance.

        Laws are different in different places, but I’ve never read that a deauth attack is illegal, as long as (and this part is important) you don’t try to hijack the packets being sent [or inject your own packets].

          Damn. I want an ap that when it detects these glasses, makes them play a loud/ high pitched noise that makes them uncomfortable to wear and users take them off.
