The Inmo Go 3 has a camera cover that speaks volumes about smart glasses right now.
Just when I start wearing my dark rimmed glasses again these things get popular, now I have to buy new glasses, because they look too much like these and I don’t want to be mistaken for wearing them, I feel like I already have, I hate everything.
People shouldn’t wear glasses unless they need them, you don’t need a HUD for life you fucking dorks.
People wearing smart glasses should be shamed.

No, nothing so simple. Just break their glasses
Can I just get a camera free version with HUD so I can see notifications and reminders? That’s all I want, there’s no reason for a camera.
The camera is there to harvest as much info from you and the people around you as possible.
From the company’s perspective, there’s no reason to make these without a camera.
There are a TON of third-party attachments online, designed not to cover the camera and enhance privacy, but to cover the little light that reveals it’s live-recording or streaming.
Nothing says “I’m perving on you” like smart glasses
I best not see you around me with that shit. It’s gonna get mighty expensive.
When I see one of these assholes in public I just stare at them very uncomfortably.
Companies or users?
Yay?

I really hope there is gonna be a law in Europe that these ridiculous things need a red flashing light and a beeping noise when they film. Otherwise you are legally allowed to hit them with a sock full of pennies.
