What idiot is signing up for this shit???
The same idiots that fill their homes with active internet-connected microphones.
Given who it is selling it, and particularly the whole week advertised battery life, I can't help but think this is going to end up marketed towards employers wanting to monitor their workers 24/7.
Those guys paying musk to use Twitter are pretty dumb, maybe them
Americans
same idiots who follow brands and lifestyle products
I mean, I would love an anklet that tracks my biometrics for a week at a time
I'm not putting on one designed by a tech giant, but if I didn't understand the need for privacy I can see the appeal
Same ones that carry gps's with microphones and several cameras and other sensors in their pockets all day which are controlled by these very types of corporations. Also the same ones that double down and wear the ones with additional sensors on their wrists.
