Zuckerberg's Meta Glasses: Déjà Vu or Just Dé-brew?

On a Wednesday evening drenched in dĂ©jĂ  vu, Mark Zuckerberg strutted Meta Connect’s stage by live-streaming a backstage tour through his new glasses, magically teleporting us back to 2012.

Meta’s spectacle checklist: live demo? Check. Awkward nostalgia dive? Double check. Meta trying to make eyewear cool again feels as fresh as a rerun of that doomed Glass parade, only this time with more billion-dollar confidence and fewer skydive stunts.
