What is creepier: Prince Charges, or Prince Charges wearing Google Glass?

Get ready for Name Tag: It's the app that will kill privacy

Just think, a random person walking down the sidewalk wearing Google glass look at you and completely ID you, know all there is to know, thus ending privacy once and for all. It’s not science fiction it’s now.

Get ready for Name Tag: It's the app that will kill privacy

Google Glass has a new and creepy porn app: It allows you to watch yourself have sex with your partner.. it's the ultimate in sexual narcissism and a definite sign the end is nigh

Of course, someone may correctly point out that Shaggin Wagons and carpeted bedrooms of yesteryear were equipped with mirrors, the old fashioned way of Google Glassing it. These days it’s all techno, baby. 

But you’re so vain, you probably thought the sex was about you.

So … how long before Google Glass gets banned—or used—in your bedroom?

The wired future.. I will make my prediction for the record.

Not to be outdone by Google, APPLE is now hinting that you will soon be able to wear their technology.. which propels me to re-re-re-state my prediction from ten years back concerning wearable devices. At some point in our near future we will have technology implanted. Your phone will be your hand. Your brain will be wired to the Net. 
Unless that big solar flares gets us all..

So yes, that means if the world doesn’t end, you’ll be on Tumblr will be literally in your fingertips. But do you really want Yahoo to be that close to you?

Disruptions: At Odds Over Privacy Challenges of Wearable Computing

Fans of wearable computers can capture what is happening around them with a wink or a subtle click, which raises the question of whether bystanders have a say in being recorded.

Nick Bilton, who wrote this article for the NY TIMES, presents quite a stark question: What do you do at a party when someone you are talking to is wearing Google Glass? Stare at the all seeing camera, or just leave the room?

I wonder what will happen with the Google Glass future. We have accepted most of the internet’s privacy defects. We are seemingly ok with Google snapping photos of our houses .. we appear alright that every movement we make online is snapped, cataloged, and often given over to government entities for ‘national security’ reasons.. But Google Glass? A contraption that will snap your life in images? One that will also see everything you do.. and if you can see it, Google can see it? … creepy. With a capital C.

But this is the future. Where privacy isn’t existent.

It once was said that, on any given Street Corner, USA, you did not possess any true privacy. No presumption. But what about that dark corner in a bar room late on a Friday night… and someone wearing Google Glass snaps your image? Or .. in your own home .. or.. anywhere.

I have had some major problems with friends who send me “People of Walmart” jokes. Do I chuckle at the first image or two I glance at? I did. I do.. But I often send back a reply telling them to take me off of their list of folks who get these ‘jokes.’ After all, what is it that is funny about them? The odd images of people shopping late at the store…. or the souls of those who mock and degrade them..? We are just fine with people snapping photos of other people, posting them online, just to make light of their either mental or physical conditions? I am not ok with it. I never liked the People of Walmart forwards, still don’t like them… and sadly… I’m outnumbered.

You know why? Because we are going to be entering the new phase of life.. the GOOGLE GLASS phenom.

Get ready..You may be recorded .. all of them time. Without knowing it.

And what happens when People of Walmart turns into the next ‘joke’ …? What happens when your privacy has been compromised? 

We may have no presumption of privacy in public places. But for God sakes, don’t we at least have a presumption that other humans will be thoughtful? Other humans .. .being thoughtful? Nah. They will simply just forward the next best joke, making light about someone else..

We are turning into a very different society than we once were..

From strip clubs to theaters, Google Glass won't be welcome

It brings up some delicate and truly great questions.. How should businesses that deal with appealing to the sense of sight deal with glasses that see it all?

From strip clubs to theaters, Google Glass won't be welcome

Keep your beer goggles on. Just don't wear Google glasses. A dive bar in Seattle has become the first place to ban the Google Glasses..

This is what will greet patrons:

And even though the article sort of makes a mockery of the owner and the bar, the points he makes are valid and …quite frankly, I agree wholeheartedly.

I understand a public place is not one where you go to find privacy.. but there’s something different about a dark and smoky bar. Well I guess not smoky, since cigs are banned in places, too.. but you catch my drift.

With Google Glass, all is known.. all is live.. all is streamed. No secrets.

Let’s keep some places sorta private? Please? Let’s keep the dive bar on AnyCorner, USA, a little under the radar? Without that, there’d be no place left to go!
