When the cameras first came out there was a bit of a moral panic around them. People were afraid of being photographed at all and if I had several issues, moral panic followed, and even a bill from time to time on how you could use the cameras. It seems that we may be approaching a similar moral panic around the upcoming release of Google Glass. There was more concern about the "privacy" rumor around Google Glass - which even led the former head of Homeland Security Michael Chertoff about the consequences and suggest that Congress and the look of the Federal Trade Commission. An advertising campaign called "Stop the Cyborgs" (seriously guys?) Has appeared that offers Google glass ban signs for places that want to ban the technology, not yet published. More recently, someone set up a White House petition urging the White House to ban the devices until "limitations on public surveillance" can be established. Not that the White House has that kind of power, of course.
Everything seems to scream moral panic about a new technology, yet they could not even make his way. Of course, even if the glass does not bite, this is how the technology works, and sooner or later someone is going to get this kind of product, so that eventually even seem strange that the glass, but it comes to fit into a contact lens or can be incorporated directly. That's how it is likely to go. People can get mad all they want and demand that there be a law, but most people recognize that technology is coming one way or another, and it does not change or disappear. What you need to do is find a way to deal with it, rather than finding a way to stop it. But just wait until someone at the MPAA wakes up and realizes that the glass, someone will be able to record a movie ...
