Meta is adding ridiculous ‘rate limits’ and a soft paywall to its smart glasses (www.theverge.com)

TL;DR: you now need to pay a $20/month "meta premium" subscription to use a 100% offline feature that runs on your own malware-ridden smartglasses.

If you don't subscribe, you can use the feature that is already included in the hardware that you already paid for 3 hours each month

The now-paywalled feature boosts the voice of the speaker in front of you, something that even low-end ANC earphones are doing now. 5 minutes of free usage per day is basically nothing.

You know, if the kid is using state of the art tech to cheat and he still only got a C, then maybe let this one go.
Maybe this kid needs all the help he can get.

Teaching someone that cheating is a way to get a pass vs a fail isn't helping anyone, in my opinion, but it could be situational.
