Vigilante Anti‑Surveillance Trend

Ordinary people will increasingly take direct, physical action against visible consumer surveillance tech (e.g., smashing AR glasses, disabling cameras) as a form of social enforcement when legal and platform remedies feel slow or inadequate. These acts will produce rapid social‑media feedback loops — sometimes amplifying the device‑owner’s grievances, often reframing vendors’ marketing — and push debates from abstract privacy law into street‑level conflict. — If this becomes a recognizable pattern, it forces regulators and platforms to choose between stricter device limits, faster takedown/recall powers, or tolerating extra‑legal resistance that raises public‑safety and liability questions.
