    I totally get what you’re saying.

    However, it is kind of funny (interesting?) that people will trust that there isn’t a hidden camera in the exam room without question, but mistrust someone who has a camera openly displayed, but off, in the exam room. As if the reminder that cameras exist is what negates that trust, not the risk of being recorded.

    This is more of a philosophical musing than a defense of wearing a camera into an exam room.

      there’s an entire creepy industry to disable the lights.

        Yeh I know, so clearly that way of doing it isn’t sufficient.

          ?

          not sure what you’re saying; there’s multiple different bypasses. as long as creeps can record what they see without someone’s consent to be recorded, they’ll be creep glasses.

            So much the same as phones? Are phones “creep phones”?

            There are multiple ways to prevent this, they just haven’t implemented any of them yet because the pushback hasn’t been loud enough, nor has anything been legislated.

              PHONES DON’T RECORD WHERE YOU LOOK.

              Phones are visible! they don’t look like spectacles. Why do I have to explain this?

              I suspect you’re just being duplicitous, certainly you’ve never tried to put your phone on your face or answer the glasses when you hear a ringtone.

              Stop acting stupid.

                Now you’re trying to make a distinction between recording and recording exactly from your PoV? Why? Why does that make any difference?

                Glasses are visible, and what I’ve been saying is that there just needs to be legislation and standards around making it obvious when smart glasses are recording.
