This is the problem people have with glass, they feel like their privacy is being invaded and it is not solving a painpoint. So google is going to know who i am looking at and what products i am looking at.... come on, this is ridiculous! I need to feel that this is a utility not something of excess i do not need. This can help doctors as info on pubmed quickly, collaborate with other docters quicker especially in urgent care. But telling that it is going to know who and what i am looking at, my intoxication etc, just does not make me want it. Imagine if Jobs marketed iphone as a way to take creepshots of females or the supposition of anything like that.

6. The really scary thing? The eye sensor. There's a reason why +Larry Page didn't answer my question at last year's Google IO: that thing can probably tell whether you are drunk or sober (think about THAT tonight). It also can probably tell you when you are checking out someone you shouldn't be (wait until the wife gets an alert about THAT). Of course Google will use it to tell what brands you are checking out at the grocery store (coupon alert) or when you are shopping in a shopping mall.

The privacy thing is really a big deal, it cannot be underplayed. You can probably get the public to buy into it for police, since you can sell the "it will keep the police honest" angle, but I cannot think of any painpoint that it would solve for the general public, when worn by the general public.

As for Google Ogle-detection™... I think the solution there is probably relationship counselling. That's basically an extension of the "my smartphone's GPS will allow my wife to track my every movement" problem. Trust and respect will remain as important as ever in relationships in the future.

I don;t know if u downvoted me, but what u saying is exactly what i am saying, the privacy issue is a big issue and they keep on piling on features that are creepy. I wish the first version did not have the ability to take record videos or take pics but to only display video and pics. Then the public and public places like restaurants would have been more accepting, but the cat is already out of the bag, so we will see how this unfolds.

I did not downvote you, I agree with your point about privacy.
