Google Glass tried that. Even with an obvious indicator of recording, some people still believed that anyone wearing Google Glass was recording 24/7. There's no way that'd fly in modern society.

- rhn_mk1 6y agoRecording indicators are doomed to fail, as people want a not-recording indicator. The only obvious and reliable one is having the camera out of sight.
- ipaddr 6y agoIn any downtown area you are on camera 24/7. I think the expectations of privacy have changed. Google glasses released on mass now would not make similiar headlines.
- cat199 6y ago'downtown areas' have been on camera for decades, certainly by the time google glass was released, so i don't think this is really a useful data point.
- beardog 6y agoGo to a public area and visibly record people. Particularly while talking to them. You will annoy a lot of people and some will act with hostility (especially if you don't frame it as some sort of interview). People don't like it when nobodies are filming them, even in very public spaces. For some reason they are ok with CCTV, despite that not being much different (I do recognize that cctv is typically recording a general area and isn't always HQ)
- ipaddr 6y agoI think people don't mind being recorded but they want to know why. If the reason becomes because a big name company does it automatically we generally accept. For example people now accept amazon / google listening to background conversations in order to process commands.
