With Google glasses, it was this strange contraption over one eye, so it was easy to shun or shame them into taking it off when at a conference or in a public bathroom (saw it happen many times).

Problem with these are that the wearer can claim they're prescription, even though there's a camera and mic on them. And there are tons of stickers and covers you can buy online to hide the little recording indicator.

There were also stories that these would soon autorecord/stream everything, and use AI to transcribe what was said and identify anyone encountered. Presumably so you could later go back and review something that you missed.

What we have are essentially millions of portable Flock cameras with infinite storage and personal ID built in.

Well, yeah. You wouldn't allow someone to film at a swimming pool with their phone. Stealth cameras of any form are immediately far more suspicious.

same way the monkeywrench got its name maybe

Reframing

Nice

I thought they would be awesome when they can out after reading Freedom Tm.

google was the first to make pervert glasses, did people not learn from this.

Down with camera glasses!

Now back to regularly scheduled perv camera phone existence.

Creeper peepers

I remember a long time ago I did buy camera glasses in 2016 and they were 720p (allegedly) but were 100% disconnected and you needed a cable to get your stuff out of there.

Why did I get them? Because they were a good way of being a tourist and recording things from your POV without a camera. Also I bought many for a spy themed evented I was attending.

These are just terrifying.

Oh - I love this angle!!!

Spread the word bros! I'll only call them pervert glasses from now on
