I disagree that the technology is currently dangerous as very few people would opt to allow the government to view their video feed. It is as you say - something right out of 1984 - and most people would recognize that and not give permission.

Unless the video is uploaded without the user's knowledge, I think we do not have to worry about government usage of these cameras.

They wouldn't need to give permission to the government. "Get Glass today with 1TB free cloud storage. Access your precious memories from your phone, tablet or television!" Once it's in Google's cloud it's just a subpoena away.

Opt to allow?! What planet are you from?
