As an aside, it’s crazy that Ray Ban would hitch their most valuable brand cachet to such a controversial wagon

Meta have a minority stake in Ray Ban and Oakley's parent company, EssilorLuxottica. The investment was largely to support development of future AI glasses. It does make me a little sad to see Wayfarers end up this way too.
