Glassholes
eOnline reports:
A new app will allow total strangers to ID you and pull up all your information, just by looking at you and scanning your face with their Google Glass. The app is called NameTag and it sounds CREEPY.
The “real-time facial recognition” software “can detect a face using the Google Glass camera, send it wirelessly to a server, compare it to millions of records, and in seconds return a match complete with a name, additional photos and social media profiles.”
The information listed could include your name, occupation, any social media profiles you have set up and whether or not you have a criminal record (“CRIMINAL HISTORY FOUND” pops up in bright red letters according to the demo).
Since the NSA is tapping into all of our digital communications, it is not unreasonable to assume that all of the info from your digital glasses – yup, everything – may be recorded by the spy agency.
Are we going to have millions of mini NSAs walking around recording everything … glassholes?
Postscript: I love gadgets and tech, and previously discussed the exciting possibilities of Google Glasses.
But the NSA is ruining the fun, just like it’s harming U.S. Internet business.

Time for someone to invent a portable communications disruptor.
Something you could walk around with it switched on.
Something that wold mess the signals.
Probably would screw the i-Thingys too, but I don't give a shit.
we already have the capability to jam wireless signals. we use them in the middle east. they are called WARLOCKS.

there it is "glass my ass"
Just carry around a IR laser diode and point it in the face of the glass-wearing-zombie.
Star wars is here...we finaly have a chance to use a laser to defend ourselves.
Not just the NSA ruining it. I don't want any random stranger with glasses to know anything about me. That's why I have an alias after all.
Did it just become acceptable to hit someone with glasses? Methinks So!
Stop the planet, I want to get off.
Slap every dimwit wearing GG upside the head...every one...every time. Make it very UNfashionable to be seen in them.
Pass it along
Just hold their head under water(toilets work best) until the little light thingy goes out...
A new meaning to:
"here's looking at you"
Ooo, ooo, there's Reggie! And, Charles Manson!! And that head spy who seems to be a prolific disseminator of the clap.
This is more even fun than "Where's Waldo"!
Maybe it's time for us all to start wearing full body Burkas in public. Then, not only are we shielded from the Glass, but shotguns become concealed carry material.
We already do, they are called cars.
r4, c2, Guilty by default. Charges to be determined. What the hell was he doing outside the NY Fed? !
Now that's fucking hilarious right there.
How long until local police departments employ "ballistic google glasses"?
They won't take them off when they go to the bar, or check out the guy with the girl you like. Next you could put temperature overlays and then infrared, you could be like Terminator or Predator, or both!
That's what we need!
New York Police Department is beta-testing Google Glass
Google Glass for Cops: Taser's Plans for Wearable, Real-time Police ...
raising some interesting 4th amendment issues
oh wait, we don't have a 4th amendment
So, will they put away the glasses when they're shoving your face into the ground?
edit: kurt, that is the ultimate goal.
Will they smash your face (and grab your "Glass") if you are watching them with GG while they shove somebody else's face into the ground? The possibilities are endless.
Don't worry there is a team of public relations experts working, right now, on how to make you either feel better or forget about this.
Can't believe ANYONE would want one of those.
ARRGGHHH....
Yes, attention seeking douchebags.
Fuck this shit man, I'm going rural.
I am nauseated thinking about the 'virtual reality' gaming market that's going to spawn off this monstrosity.
If you think SnapChat is bad, you aint seen nothin yet.
Even the Matrix wasn't this fucking bad!
Curse those like-whores, smartphone addicts and +1 kids; they will be the curse of us all!
and I hear they work on everyone unless you point them at federal agents
I'm going back to wearing clown make-up.
