🚨 KMART IS SELLING $89 CAMERA GLASSES THAT SECRETLY RECORD YOU — AND THEY’RE ALREADY SOLD OUT

Spying just got a whole lot cheaper.

Kmart is now selling Anko camera glasses for only $89.

That’s less than a fifth of the price of Meta’s official smart glasses.

These look like regular glasses… but they can record video and audio of everything happening around you.

All that footage and audio doesn’t stay on the device.
It gets sent straight to the servers of a Chinese company that built the AI system behind them.

Kmart stores in Australia have already completely sold out.

Women online immediately raised the alarm, pointing out how easy it would be for creeps to secretly film people in public without anyone knowing.

Kmart’s official response?

They basically said: “We expect customers to use them responsibly.”

That’s it.

At this price point, these glasses won’t stay niche.
They’re about to flood the market and eventually show up in everyday prescription frames, reading glasses, and sunglasses.

You won’t be able to tell who’s recording… and who isn’t.

$89.
Secret cameras on people’s faces.
Data going overseas.
Mass rollout coming.

Are we really okay with living in a world where anyone can secretly film you for less than $100?
