    Why the fuck are these things legal??? How can one consent to a recording that is already taking place? I’m struggling to find a use case where glasses with cameras on them are useful.

    Absolutely insane. These things should be banned. The temptation and ability for abuse far outweighs any benefit they may claim to provide.

      Why is any of the surveillance that already exist everywhere around you, legal?

    Y’all know phones have cameras, right?

      Are you implying that people shouldn’t be upset about the pervert glasses cameras because phones have cameras?

        Calling them that because of the camera is undercut by everyone already carrying a camera, and routinely having them pointed toward you by holding the device.

        The problem is the part where it uploads shit to corporate spy agencies, not the hardware being a tiny phone on your face. The hardware is not meaningfully different from the tiny phone… in your hand.

      And cars have cameras and flock has cameras and ring has cameras and TVs and monitors and microphones everywhere. Its insane ppls are bitching so much about these glasses when they let Google home listen to everything inside their home. Almost like it’s being fueled by competitors, rather than actual ppl.

        I doubt it would be someone who also bought a pervert car and a pervert tv and a pervert doorbell and bugged their own home that would then bring up this problem with the pervert glasses.

        What kind of competitor are you talking about?
