Title: Best Google Glass defense?
Post by: mission on March 01, 2014, 08:55:33 PM
Hi,

Looks like the world of Google Glass is coming and this crap is going to be everywhere soon - whether we like it or not.
I'm wondering what would be the best way to prevent myself from being recorded.

Wearing a hood and sunglasses is a pretty obvious solution, but what about more sophisticated methods? Are there any?
I've just encountered this video showing a pretty neat infrared jammer: www.youtube.com/watch?v=LRj8whKmN1M

What do you think? Maybe someone's gonna invent a "scramble suit (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5fac6aHFa_k)" soon? :)

A necessary clarification for the Google fanboys out there:
The biggest problem that I have with Google Glass is that there is no external indicator diode to show when Google Glass is in recording mode.
I feel that being recorded without my knowledge and permission invades my right to privacy.

You forfeited your privacy when you were born :D. The moment you entered your mother's egg, it was over. :D

But in the world of smartphones, talking fridges, nanobots and CCTV :)

our privacy is clearly vanishing.

You are being recorded on the street every day, drivers and riders have mounted cameras, there are cams on shops, trafic lights, people randomly record stuff with their phones. Only way to be out of this is to live on a farm, away from the pesky society.
