Smart glasses equipped with cameras, microphones, and AI are a creeping privacy and security nightmare, prompting backlash.

And rightfully so.

The problem is that influencers are already way ahead of you. Lots of normalizing them for "content creation" when they want to film in public. And if they had a sponsorship in a different video? Coincidence.

A bunch of those influencers are perverts and creeps themselves, though. Not just inherently because they're using the glasses, but because they post video evidence of themselves creeping on and harassing people in real life.
