Yes because it involves technology, no not because it implies interest. It’s wrong because technology lets you share what you see with others. People trust you to see butts on a beach because they know who exactly can see the butts, andcan personally deal with creeps. I wouldn’t go to a beach where my butt could end up online without my being abletostop it (and I mean a focused shot, not a general beach picture).

The only thing you’ve said is wrong is the sharing of pictures/video.

So, the problem is not the glasses, it’s not taking video with them, it’s sharing that video with others. So maybe chill out about the stuff that isn’t the actual problem.

(Not that the act of sharing is actually going to harm the subject of the video, anyway)

Some countries have the legal principle of “right to one’s own image”, and maybe you want that. But everyone here advocating violence seem to have forgotten how to do democracy.

  A lot of changes in democracies happen following violent events. Violence is unfortunately one of the very few effective method to raise attention on an issue.
  
  The law hardly change spontaneously.

  If you use a Meta smartglass, the “sharing” is out of your control.
  
  It’s actually going to be interesting when a smartglass wearer has to explain a judge they didn’t know it was recording and uploading pictures or videos.

    Explaining to the judge in what court case? When some of the keyboard warriors here are in the dock for assault? Or for some imagined crime of “recording a video of me”?
    
    I actually don’t think Meta breaks gdpr that badly, and I know for a fact they don’t upload video all the time, because it’s not physically possible.
