Python55583yI’d much rather have Apple do this than either Facebook or Google based on their stance in privacy.

C0D4681973y@killames
Google Glass was AR rather then video recording, and didn't release to the public, only enterprise.
Apple was rumoured of doing a similar thing to Google, but Facebook has skipped the tech and shoved a video camera into them. -
killames5753y@C0D4 nicely worded
Of course you know phones and the internet already function as mass surveillance along with individuals engaging in expected reptetiyibe behavior the more of which occurring represents a majority control making small differences in behavior spottable
In essence all someone would have to do is provide a backend by sharing private keys and installing a filter in the isp and if enough people did exactly the same on a network segment the rest is actionable -
killames5753yThere are places in the USA where multiple buildings surveillance systems are combined under the view of people with nothing to do but state and make note and whole crowds of people are on repeat and predetermined schedules of movement creating a seemingly benign background

Doesn't matter which company.
Though AR / VR might be tempting... Humanity is fucked already.
Needs unfucking not more fucking.
Even _if_ the company had a clean profile which _NO_ company has, government / terrorism would want this so badly.
They would get it. No shred of doubt.
TLDR: no matter which company, AR/VR is - given humanity's behaviour - a bad idea -
Root824773y@Python I don’t trust Apple, either. Especially not with their recent iCloud photo scanning scandal.

vane113043yFacebook is just trying to copy snapchat spectacles. They’re just bunch of script kiddies that try to be cool by copying other people and companies ideas.
They’re even worse than Chinese.
I’m waiting for fuck glasses. To see all people nude :D Technology is already here, just need a little more computing power or stream it trough the cloud. -
vicary4813yProject ARIA, Google had that exact same name as an axed project of modular mobile phone.

@vane replied to this comment before seeing yours. I knew I saw the Snapchat ones somewhere. This is no different then someone doing their own, let's say, goggles. Skiing and sports etc. This is a natural evolution that we've seen for many years coming.
