I don't see that being much of an issue. When you're out in public, most expectations of privacy are gone anyways.

- jacquesm 13y agoYes, but you don't want every Tom, Dick and Harry to start photographing you either do you? How would you feel if where ever you went someone followed you with a camera pointed at you?
- lmm 13y agoI live in London so that's basically happening already.
- pekk 13y agoAre those recordings currently posted on Facebook or Youtube, with you tagged in them? Do those cameras follow you inside every pub? If so I am quite sorry for you. This isn't fighting governments, this is creating the panopticon. All the public footage will be used by governments and I think you'll find that it will be much more invasive and even malicious than what governments are currently doing. Governments are mostly interested in illegal actions and are at least partially constrained, the general public and anyone who doesn't like you will be happy to use this against you in every way conceivable.

- moe 13y agoWhether we like it or not, that's where we're heading. A few governments will try to add guard-rails, but that will merely cause delays (cf. the EU "Public Display"-law that delayed streetview). At the end of the day the always-on features will be too useful and entertaining for a majority to "restrain" themselves.
- RossM 13y agoI don't really get this argument. Putting aside that if someone wants to follow you and take pictures they can do that already, and that glass itself doesn't cause you to become that person, the worst you can experience will be in the background of someone's picture or video. Miniature cameras have been available for years, strapping one to your head doesn't make you a stalker.
- pekk 13y agoIf someone wants to follow me and take pictures they have to pay the price of making it obvious that they are doing so. Using little spy cameras is already thoroughly antisocial, glass seeks to change that and normalize public recording

- PeterisP 13y agoDepending on your country, you probably are being photographed all the time - if significant portion of cars have dashboard-cams (as, say, in Russia) then on the street you're likely all the time on someone's camera.
