I don't think we should normalize pointing cameras at people's faces all the time. I hate these things.

I agree completely with this comment, but I just want to point out that this cat's been out of the bag for at least the past 10 years.

There's camera's everywhere at this point: every doorbell/garage, every store, every light on the street, even my friend's pet/baby monitors when I visit. I hate it.

it's not because everything sucks that we need to normalize making it worse

I agree. The white light these turn on when recording is not enough for the average person to realize recording is happening.

I was visiting a museum yesterday and someone was using these to livestream/record their own (bad) tour. Security stopped someone doing this with their phone earlier, but had no idea what this guy was doing.

Maybe they have some light to show if they're on. But is everyone supposed to just know that? Pointing a video camera at everyone you talk to is an... interesting social choice. Glasses like these should be designed with a physical mechanisms to cover the cameras.

Based on the comments above this sentiment is going away vs. in Oct 2023 when i start evangelizing them I heard and saw a lot more of I hate these privacy nightmare stuff.
