The return of the glassholes, now with more privacy invading action!

For reals. Fuck anyone who wears this shit.

Soon there won't be an inch of the planet that isn't being live streamed, whether people are aware of it or not. I really wish Mark had been hugged more as a child.

You know most people possess a device that can live stream already?

But those devices are obvious when in use for filming. Like the Google Glass fiasco a decade ago, there's going to be a backlash against people wearing cameras all the time leaving everyone around them with no idea if they're being filmed or not.

Not necessarily, you can be holding your phone normally and still film. Especially with cameras with wide angle lenses, you don't even have to be pointing it at it. If you want covert then hidden cameras have existed for decades and continue to get smaller and cheaper. If someone wants to live stream without your knowledge, they're not going for bulky expensive sunglasses.

If you are talking about their phones, they have to be kind of obviously recording, holding their phones up while these glasses may or may not be just passively recording.

The real question is why the fuck would I want Facebook or Instagram being pushed onto my face?!?!

[-] Midnitte@kbin.social 3 points 11 months ago

I don't think that is a good idea.
