I saw a steve jobs quote about headphones and how there would be an analog for the eyes. Just as people carry headphones so they do not have to carry a large stereo system, they will carry headsets. Once people start walking around in public, like they did with headphones in the 80s, adoption will continue to grow. For example you could help relieve autism symptoms by providing emotion recognition in the headset. Provide subtitles for the real world by doing voice recognition. Etc.

Yeah but instead it'll just be used to show ads and track you, and photograph and video and track everybody else. I already find it offensive enough that most people wander around with a fully enabled GovCorp surveillance pod recording everything all the time. Last thing I want is some dweeb going through my 20 year old Reddit posts when he glances at me, my face being analyzed, current outfit and / accessories fed into my ad profile, etc.

We have to have a conversation about this as a species, it's already gone way too far.
