It still isn't OK. It is just that the technology became so small, you can't differentiate with regular sunglasses anymore.
I mean you kind of still can. Wire frame sunglasses are still too small to have recording hardware. |

You know what sucks? In that AR glasses, in theory, are such an interesting technology with lots of potential, and certainly a piece of tech I would love to have and work with and on. Not to secretly record people, but to, well.. augment my field of view with whatever digital tools or displays I would like. It would be so useful It's honestly kinda saddening to me that it most likely will get c...
The truth is that we already are living in the surveillance state and people are just going to have to "get over" being recorded in public by anyone that walks by. I don't like it either. But that's the reality we're entering into, where privacy isn't a right but a privilege and that privilege does not exist save for some very select (if any at this point) places like your home ... Maybe. |

No, people do not have to get over that. People need to stand up for their rights. Being in a public space isn't justification to have your movements recorded and logged 24/7. Stop being the fucking knee you coward. |

I agree but the biggest defense for this is to always assume you're being recorded when in public even if you're not. You never know. The issue becomes relevant in private spaces, to me. Nobody with smart glasses is coming into my home. |

I'm not the other commenter, and it's not all encompassing, but I'll link this one here for DE https://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Recht_am_eigenen_Bild_(Deutschland)
Forgive the machine translation to English, but reading that shows the a very similar exception to privacy protection we have here in the USA Here's one example: "There are exceptions to events (demonstrations, general meetings, cultural events, etc.). Here, participants must expect to be photographed. This is about what is happening and not about the person itself. " Most of the wiki article is talking specifically about copyright, which isn't the scope of what we're talking about. Publication of taken images is a different topic. |

Using an AR display on those glasses with frames that thick is such a horrible idea. Google was on the right track with the HUD displayed on a frame-less prism that doesn't block half your vision. Last thing I'd want is to be in the middle of something with my hands full and the display bugs out, blocking the one eye, making me screw something up.
Maybe don't cause your own problems. |

You don't need to actively punch everyone you see. Just punch the Nazis. For the privacy part, what one could reasonably do once the tech becomes affordable is to eg.: wear passive EMP devices or something similar that disable cameras near you (at some point, the tech has to fit in a space too small for EMP shielding). |

It would be incredibly useful in construction. Having a digital overlay telling you exactly where to put up the framing for a separating wall, or an overlay showing the correct distance between screws, or where wires and pipes are inside a wall? There are so incredibly many awesome possible uses for AR in construction.
Unneeded. We already have a tool for that it's called blueprints, they haven't failed in over 3000 years. |

Breaking someone's legs requires excessive force, so no, you would not be within your rights to break someone's legs for punching you in the face. That would absolutely be an escalation of force and not legally defendable. In order to shoot someone in self defense, you have to prove that you feared for your life. Its not a get out of jail free card. |

If you dont want corpos to exploit it, you go with GPL. Then they are forced to share back.
I like AGPL in theory, but in practice it never works like that. They are protected by a smoke screen — you don’t know if they are using something, how they are using it, or what they’ve built on it — and even if something did leak about their usage they are protected by money — the vast majority of FOSS projects won’t have the resources to pursue any kind of legal enforcement or reasonable remedy. In practice, they will use and build on A/GPL software while contributing nothing back in blatant violation of the spirit and intent of the license, because who is going to find out or enforce it? |

Blueprints don't fail, people really really often do though. People measure wrong, or build on the wrong side of the line they've drawn. It's not a question about "Is it essential", it's a question about "Will it make it easier, faster and less errorprone". |

I know next to nothing about the glasses, but would they be vulnerable to anything the Flipper Zero is capable of doing?
I mean, the Flipper Zero is just a computer with a few radios built-in. I think the only one they share with most smart glasses is Bluetooth which might potentially have some vulnerabilities which could be exploited, but there are also expansion cards for the Flipper Zero that add everything from wifi and ethernet ports to high-powered IR blasters, so the real question is how vulnerable smart glasses are. And the truth is, they're vulnerable by default because they rely on corpo servers to operate like any other "smart" device. Any flaw in the security of the glasses themselves barely holds a candle to the fact that they forward everything to Facebook or some other big tech brand name with a financial interest in monetizing your data. |

I'm just being realistic about the future. You already are carrying around a machine that's listening and watching. You're walking into and out of stores where you're on camera. Hell you're driving past however many cameras in your car or walking past them on the street, every business, every office, every space has cameras now. Thus, I think eventually more and more augmented reality devices will be seen because people will come to appreciate their uses outside of just being recording devices once that concern is overcome. In other words, wearing AR glasses won't get you default labeled as some perverted weirdo. You don't need to bend over and spread but we're past the point where there should be any expectation of privacy in public spaces. I'm not saying I like it, I'm saying I expect our society to continue to move towards a surveillance model where privacy simply cannot be expected in any public space. Do I think it's dystopian and bad, yes, yes I do. I also think we need strong privacy protections for our private domiciles. That doesn't mean my opinion is aligned with what actually is going to happen in our world. I don't want it but it's what is going to happen and has been happening. |

They are used for that kind of applications already. You put one of those on, and some technician remotely guides you in doing some maintenance while looking through your eyes. They can mark things in your fov, show you diagrams, whatever. Pretty neat actually. |

I agree with the core of your point. I'd like to assert, though, that all people exert some level of self-censorship in public on the basis of the opinions of their neighbors and peers. Having to worry about powerful organizations like governments and megacorps also always being there (instead of just sometimes, or usually) adds a new degree of reason to self-censor, for sure. |

The main differences I can think of are: Better video quality More normalized Easier to get your hands on They look like raybans and are brand name They're debatibly "cool" Also Facebook is involved Basically they produce better video and are more normalized in society.
Let's see how "cool" and "normalized" they are when police arrest the first guy recording around a playgound. |

There's a difference between taking a picture of a person and taking a picture of scenery or event with a person in it in Germany. It's a subtle but significant difference. And relevant when talking about do you have to expect for your picture to be taken. You may not care when your in the background or not identifiable but at the same time care when someone knows you and takes photography of you, or takes photos of you where you're the main focus of the image. There's a distinction between whether they will be published or are for private use too. |

Drop the cameras and microphones and replace them with a couple accelerometers and gyros. Paired with your phone's GPS tracking, the glasses can tell where you're looking without actually seeing anything. You can get handy features like a floating 'turn here' sign over your exit while driving with GPS navigation without recording anyone or anything at any time. Better battery life, too.
GNSS isn't really accurate enough for this, especially in urban environments where there is poor line of sight to most of the satellites. |
