More and more, i see people wearing these ‘smart’ glasses as sunglasses which i find totally creepy and intrusive. Living in the EU, i am wondering how these glasses are even ‘allowed’ in public or may even be sold here. It becomes harder to avoid cause they become so hard to identify. How to deal with this? To what extend is this allowed? (cause apparently it is some way)

    Facial recognition street cameras are far more dangerous than these. Sure they are pretty creepy but without rayban you could already insert tiny cameras into glasses to spy on people

    EDIT : the only big concern is that they get more popular and that they increased even faster the global surveillance

      Well law enforcement already use videos uploaded to social networks, what’s gonna stop them from using videos recorded by glasses once they are in the cloud?

        You’re absolutely right but these are mainly a droplet in the glass of global surveillance started by global facial cameras But at the end they are surely going to even more increase this shit
