As a cyborg (semi-mechanical computer-controlled heart) I don't like where "guilt by association" usually takes these "Stop The Identifiably Different People" memes.
Yes, the consternation has an understandable factor. It's technology whose time has come, so society must get used to it and work out suitable applicable ethics & protocols. Wasn't long ago when nobody was broadband-networked 24/7 with instant video connection and chatting with friends everywhere all the time, and the looming prospects of it happening garnered lots of "I'd never do that and would hate anyone who did", leading to some ugly incidents. A movement for responsible & considerate integration of 24/7 augmented reality into society? yes. "Stop The Cyborgs"? let's stay away from burning-at-the-stake terms, please.
