No, recording glasses absolutely are awful to have in society, but there are potential good uses of the technology. None that outweigh the downsides, but good uses for it could exist.
For example when you see someone you met before it could pop up a bubble telling you their name, their relationship to you, when you saw them last, previous topics that you’ve discussed with them, etc. Or when you’re following walking directions it could display a green line on the route you’re supposed to follow. Or for people with disabilities it could do things like block out visual elements that could trigger a seizure. Etc.
But as i said earlier, all the potential upsides combined don’t come close to outweighing all the very awful very real downsides. Just clarifying.
Agreed, and that’s the thing. It’s inherently an all or nothing technology, no rules or regulations could ever be trusted to allow the good uses but prevent the bad uses. So the only right option is to prevent the technology from being used at all
