Comment on Dumb glasses
lumen@feddit.nl 1 month agoI agree it can be creepy. But where I live, and in the US, as well as many other countries, you have no expectation of privacy in public. That’s why it’s called public. It might feel right to want to impose some restrictions on public photography, but since there’s absolutely no way to fairly draw a line, it’s better to not impose limits at all.

No smart glasses. Alright, then I would wear hidden camera’s in the buttons of my shirt. The point I’m trying to make here, is that this is not a technological debate. It’s about freedoms: having your freedoms means having to respect others’ as well.

Like respecting others’ freedom to a reasonable degree of privacy.

To draw a line between what is and isn’t reasonable is impossible.

why the need for hidden recording equipment anyway? do you wanna spy on women that badly?
lumen@feddit.nl 1 month ago
You’re projecting. I only want to spy on men.

Americans are already getting brutalized and robbed for using recording equipment in public. To be fair, the intersection of protesters and glasses-camera people is very small.
