Indeed, as is the old trick of surreptitiously taking upskirt photos with a cameraphone. There are an infinite number of ways by which a bad actor can use Glass for nefarious ends - as is the case with almost any technology. And that's the point I'm making - not that Glass is an infallible technology with no social downsides, but rather that its success isn't hinged on it. If it offers something valuable to its users and their friends, society as a whole will work around it - either by evolving the technology or evolving our notion of propriety. More likely, a bit of both. We worked around security cameras (part of which involved new legislation regarding privacy effects thereof), we worked around Google Street View, and we'll work around this.
