Pirat_Nation 🔴(@Pirat_Nation):Meta has paused a new subscription plan for its Ray-Ban smart glasses after significant user backlash. The company planned to put Conversation Focus, a feature that clarifies voices in noisy places, behind its $19.99/month Meta One Premium subscription. It also intended to limit monthly usage even though the feature runs on the glasses. Users said that a feature on a purchased device should not require a subscription. Due to the backlash, Meta has put the plan on hold. Conversation Focus will remain free for Early Access users for now.
