This might actually be useful for when the cops pull you over. Or if you get bad service in a shop you'll have a video of it.

I'd never grass up a shop worker because I have working class solidarity even with those in bad moods, but the coppers is a good example. Maybe also for road cyclists, but they already have cameras if they want them.
I predict a uptick in assault and battery when people start recognizing these and get sick of them being used in public
My home cameras had some update that required the LED to be on to indicate it was capturing video. This should be required on these products.
People who don't understand that they already lost their privacy years ago: "GASP, this means someone could be recording me!"
Now you might have an idea how a company making $0 is getting funded.
Doesn't it have a 'recording' LED?
Remember the good ol' times when some guy stepped up in the cinema, stood in front of the audience, right when the movie was about to start:
"OK, Google!"
:-)
They must have a different approach if Google glasses tried the same thing and failed miserably.
Meh, I assume I’m always on camera anywhere I’m in public. I don’t like it and I really don’t want to be recorded. I’m also realistic and understand that public spaces are… well public.
I understand privacy fears because there’s nothing stopping someone in my private space from recording me now other than mutual respect and consent. If all it takes is the ease of use of some fashionable frames then it’s time to rethink your relationships.
This also applies to semi-private spaces. So think at the office or a cozy booth in a coffee shop. Assume all public places are recorded (because they often are) and establish boundaries within your relationships.
"...look like a regular pair of Ray-Ban Wayfarers..."
So they're rebranded Ray-Ban Stories
On the one hand I'd kinda love a pair of glasses that told me peoples names as I'm always forgetting them, or gave me directions without having to look at the phone.
On the other hand.. humans.
This is what's coming on the AR headsets that will eventually replace phones. Soon, if you're in public, you WILL be recorded by someone without your knowledge, and probably you already have been. There is no privacy in public areas, get used to it.
Can't wait for pervs to start using these to get upskirt videos.
