This week on Rage on the Rocks, we’re talking about Kmart’s $89 camera glasses — wearable tech that can take photos and record video while looking like an ordinary pair of specs.

There are genuine upsides: accessibility, hands-free documentation and affordable technology. But through the ragey woman lens, we’re asking what happens when cameras become cheaper, more discreet and harder to spot. Is this useful innovation, or just another way women and girls are expected to navigate being watched, filmed and turned into content without their knowledge?

We unpack privacy, image-based abuse and parenting in a camera-everywhere world — plus the bigger rage: tech companies racing to invent and sell products for profit, with too little thought for the consequences. Then it’s left to individuals, parents, schools and slow-moving legislation to pick up the tab for a largely unregulated experiment.
