A unveiled the line in a series of TikToks yesterday The OHMNI line includes a $100 shiny silver bucket hat marketed to highlight its “unique atomic structure,” which gives it electromagnetic wave deflecting powers; a $200 “Data Protection Dump Bag,” which includes a built-in Faraday cage to block all data and WiFi connections; and a $50 pair of boxer shorts made from “Original Silver Street Shield textiles” providing protection for the “numerous risks linked to electromagnetic radiation,” all promising to restore people’s autonomy and freedom. M.I.
A. promoted the fashion line with black and white graphics off the products’ features, including a shielding cage for phones, laptops, and tablets in the dump bag, The brand’s claims that OHMNI products are “your last frontier at preserving your privacy, autonomy, and rights over your body and your data.” “In the time of smart cities, digital crypto, AI, NeuraLink, hackable humans, zero privacy, deepmind, internal body data harvesting, and indiscriminate tracking surveillance, mind data mining, social media overload, augmented reality, social credit system, virtual dystopian mindfield, we bring you the revolutionary future of fashion,” the description reads.
“This is not your artist foray into fashion. This is a necessity.” And while it may seem odd, it is not.
