Meta employees themselves couldn't tell if he was recording!
There's a technology that can hide an LED light, it is called "a small piece of tape."
I don't know how effective it or how it works but Meta says they disable recording if the recording light is blocked.

And the next generation of "smart glasses" made by companies that aren't so reliant on public image will just forgo this entirely voluntary nicety.
They are designed to be easy to bypass. Plenty of tutorials exist online and I can't imagine that Meta engineers didn't know about it beforehand.
Provide this 'easy' tutorial please.
