Car customization A company located not too far from Atlanta promotes a product in the Tiktok store, which is made of the same vinyl used to wrap vehicles, but is designed for a very different purpose.
“Have a pair of Meta -eyeglasses And you want to delete this indicator, right here? “asks a man In video Posted to the Luxe Wrap Stars account. “I have the perfect solution for you.” Videos advertising these so -called “ghost points“We have seen more than 2 million times on social media, with at least 500 sets possibly sold by Tiktok.
The product listed in the store Tiktok under the name “Luxe Ghostdots 4 Meta glasses” comes with a sheet of 20 circular, vinyl stickers, and sells around $ 15, plus shipping. The listing for these “Stealth Mode” dots does not mine words about what they are drawn to do. “Block or darkens that bright white record light with these precise cut vinyl points,” reads the Description of Tiktok Shop.
Meta, according to his credit, put an indicator in his glasses for a reason. When using a pair of its smart glasses, blocking the indicator will trigger a message saying that photo and video skills are disabled. However, users have tried various strategies to get around this security and remove the light indicator, including drilling into the glasses to fully break the LED indicator inside.
Are these stickers actually work? Tiktok’s seller includes a teaching video on how to bypass the security measures of meta blocking certain indicators with your hand while the sticker is tied. However, reviews of the product in the Tiktok shop are mainly negative, claiming that it does not work as advertised. “It was so enthusiastic about these, but the meta -glasses won’t work with this. Still say they block … a great idea, however,” reads one review of a controlled buyer.
In response to another negative review of the product, posted a few days ago, the seller encourages buyers to try additional methods if they have problems to get around the securities for Meta’s smart glasses. “With the new update, instead of covering only the camera lens to bypass the alert, you must cover the frame, on which the camera lens is,” reads the seller’s answer.
