I don't think that makes a difference. I realize since you wear these things it is in your interest to make it seem like that people caring about privacy is living in past, but it really is creepy and if I saw someone wearing these in public I would not be thinking the world of them. YMMV.


> I would not be thinking the world of them

There are few things I could care less about than what some nobody I’ll ever see again thinks.


I do not think it is a safe assumption that everyone who thinks those glasses are a creepy invasion of privacy are exactly the people who you will never see again.


Why not? I was replying specifically to your context.

>if I saw someone wearing these in public

If you specifically, who I don't know and likely never will saw me wearing something like this in public and did not approve, my care factor would be nil is what I meant.

If I was to wear these in a less public setting, where perhaps I have to interact with you on a regular basis, sure, my opinion may be different.

My apologies if I misunderstood what you were trying to say.

That's not to say I would wear something like this or use it, but if it's what comes to pass, eh.


Seems to miss the forest from the trees if it is thought about in terms of one person caring or not


I would think they are cool
