    What if we punished crimes instead of monetizing them? We’ve had a multimedia Internet for a generation now, we could do this.

    My new go to is to stop the conversation, tell them to tell their glasses, out loud, to stop recording. If they dont then that conversation is over.
    Period.

    I was chatting with it CEO the other day and the your of recording glasses came up. He said they are band in the company, and they’ve had conversations with their lawyers, that also say not to allow them. I was happy to hear that.

    This was a very good, detailed read, including interviews with real affected people. I recommend anyone skimming the headline to read the full article.

    In my line of work you would be terminated on the spot if you wore these to work. I have sections of the facility that a fit bit would get you escorted off site and likely loose your job.

      Lucky you. I literally get a camera pointed at my face for every hour I work, and it screams if it thinks I’ve lost focus. Hopefully our bosses would tell these cameras to get bent, but based on their little rich people concerns over how to pacify the ‘lessers,’ I’m not hopeful.

    There are legitimate uses for head mounted cameras that track your focus.

    There are none for these devices that try to obfuscate their presence.

    Businesses need to start banning smart glasses with cameras or at least require the cameras to be covered with tape.

      Many places already do this with cellphones. It shouldn’t be different for such glasses. Using recording equipment is rarely appropriate in a workplace.

      I remember when you couldn’t have camera phones a lot of business. Seems like these would be prohibited simply from a security standpoint. Harassment would just be another reason on top of that.
