I think that issue will fade over time. Society is quickly adjusting to the panoptical norm. People complain that they do not like being monitored, but few do anything beyond the cursory installation of an ad blocker. HN is very much in the minority when it comes to digital privacy concerns.

- nsxwolf 11y agoIt's actually very difficult to covertly record with a smartphone. You may think you're being sly and discrete, but everyone sees you doing it. You can put it in some kind of camouflaged spy gadget, but I expect that to be about 1 in a million random weirdos so I don't worry about it. When suddenly everyone has the opportunity to do it with some thing on their face, it's a different story.
