Something is wrong with society when massive and expensive lawsuits happen over the size of a hamburger. I like Burger King. If I were unhappy with the size of their burgers, I could go somewhere else. Let the free market decide.

Eric Weinstein Reacts To Sam Harris On Modern Wisdom
I don't know this person, but he is interesting to listen to. He sounds like a conspiracy theorist but also plausible.

When did the name United States of America originate?
September 9, 1776
On September 9, 1776, the Second Continental Congress adopted a new name for what had been called the "United Colonies." The moniker United States of America has remained since then as a symbol of freedom and independence.

Realistically, the amount of hardware needed to make this work is not going to fit in an unobtrusive pair of glasses. Not in this decade. Maybe in the next one.

Statement on 'Physical interventions to interrupt or reduce the spread of respiratory viruses' review | Cochrane
Many commentators have claimed that a recently-updated Cochrane Review shows that 'masks don't work', which is an inaccurate and misleading interpretation.
It would be accurate to say that the review examined whether interventions to promote mask wearing help to slow the spread of respiratory viruses, and that the results were inconclusive. Given the limitations in the primary evidence, the review is not able to address the question of whether mask-wearing itself reduces people's risk of contracting or spreading respiratory viruses.
The review authors are clear on the limitations in the abstract: 'The high risk of bias in the trials, variation in outcome measurement, and relatively low adherence with the interventions during the studies hampers drawing firm conclusions.'
