    We need to move beyond just banning these glasses - all smart glasses of all kinds - to breaking up these companies. Undo the acquisitions of Insta and Whatsapp - I don't care that will be expensive, thats a shareholders problem.

      "I have no empathy for the two-thirds of Americans who will lose their personal savings that they need to retire" really undermines your case.

      Edit: thoughtful tradeoffs against the stock market are reasonable. "I don't care" is not a carefully weighed tradeoff

        It's also possible that it would benefit those same people. It doesn't necessarily need to be expensive.
