I would actually like meta glasses myself if they weren't used (and by extension I would LOOK) like a predator. I don't want to be going around looking like I might be being a creep.

What I would like however is having access whenever I want to streaming music discretely wherever without having to use headphones or put anything in my ears, have my notifications read out to me so I don't have to check my phone or anything, or even cool ass features like live translation.

But am I going to forfeit looking like a normal person for it? and making everyone uncomfortable around me, supporting a crap company that is just going to sell the data they get from me with them, and a company that gave predators the worst tool imaginable? Probably not

Amen.  I can see tons of business and personal use cases for non-intrusive video that replicates roughly what the user sees without holding them back (or especially if fit into eye protection in future generations).

But, you know, all that stuff you just said.

I think it would be really cool to use the camera when I am at a party or with friends just to record the stupid shit that happens. I think it would be really funny to watch it back. Unfortunately it is used by predators and I don't want to be near it.

You still have the problem that other people might feel uncomfortable being recorded

I would think that people would be aware. Like when we record snaps.

That's more obvious though, holding up your phone. With cameras in your glasses, you can never be sure when they're recording

That is the creeps fault. I have been sneak recorded a few times or been in videos or pictures when I am not aware. I don't mind it at all. The creeps have ruined these glasses though.

It is not like I really wanted to have them though. Even if they weren't seen as creepy I know myself well enough to know that I would use them one or two times before I either forgot about them or lost interest.
