Celine Dion Instagram is what it actually takes to break a 30% phone reduction streak. She posts still images to TikTok, which experts would tell you is exactly wrong. She carries a microphone in her purse on standby because she is Celine Dion and that is apparently just a normal thing to keep in there. You watch this unfold and realize she is not performing for the algorithm at all.

Meta smart glasses are sitting at Costco right now, and the trust problem isn't the technology. Google Glass failed and the thinking here is that Apple making the same product would change the entire conversation. One company has spent years positioning around privacy. The other built a business on monetizing exactly what you see, hear, and do every day.

The contrast between these two stories is the whole thing. One person ignoring every rule and winning anyway. One product that works best when you forget you're being watched. Next time you pick up your phone out of boredom, you might think of both.
