People are using a variety of methods to avoid being filmed by Meta “pervert glasses” after the device drew public attention. Coverage describes attempts that range from using apps that claim to detect scanners or cameras to taking other precautions intended to disrupt or prevent recording.

Some reports cite behaviors such as singing copyrighted songs or employing “scanner” phone applications as a workaround, while another outlet notes that these steps are not guaranteed to work. An attorney quoted in the reporting says that while certain tactics may deter or interfere with detection, it is not clear that all approaches reliably block filming in practice. The accounts differ in which techniques people highlight, but they converge on the idea that users are seeking ways to protect privacy in response to concerns about covert capture.

The overall picture across outlets is that public anxiety about the glasses drives experimentation with improvised defenses, alongside legal caution that effectiveness may vary and may not be consistent across situations or devices.
