Yes, but anyone with a camera in their hat or a microphone in their clothes would be labeled creepy real quick. (Which is the point.) It's not like people who hate Glass are fine with spy cams.
And the irony about "live and let live" is that Glass is recording other people. Nobody cares about what people do to themselves.
- csallen 12y agoI think the parent's point is that the technology to secretly record people already exists, but people treat Glass as if it's the sole means by which to do such thing. And even when they do recognize other forms of secret recordings, they give them a pass while simultaneously condemning Glass. There's a huge double standard. Case in point: Remember that Seattle restaurant that famously argued (via Facebook) with a diner it ejected for wearing Glass? That same restaurant had numerous photos of random customers posted to its Facebook page, many of which were taken without the subjects' knowledge, let alone permission.
- gurkendoktor 12y agoIt is consensus that having a hidden camera in your hat is creepy. There is no need to point it out every time someone talks about Google Glass. Holding your cellphone at a 90° angle while facing people, especially for longer periods of time, will not make you any friends either.
