This is how we all start dressing like daft punk. Face masks in public.
Comment on Meta Is Warned That Facial Recognition Glasses Will Arm Sexual Predators

Name Tag, as revealed in February by The New York Times, would work through the artificial intelligence assistant built into Meta’s smart glasses, allowing wearers to pull up information about people in their field of view. Engineers have reportedly been weighing two versions of the feature: one that would only identify people the wearer is already connected to on a Meta platform, and a broader version that could recognize anyone with a public account on a Meta service such as Instagram.
Creeps will instantly use it to go to where women are and find their accounts.
Not to mention any woman that has to work a customer facing job.
This would suck for men too tho, it would suck for everyone.
But it might be what it finally takes to get the dumb masses off Meta platforms. There’s so many other reasons anyways, but idiots just can’t delete their Instas

In the first case the device would still have to identify people not connected to the wearer to determine if they are connected or not. That seems like it would make it much easier to bypass and tag strangers anyway.
