[LINK] Who needs Google Glass?

[Frank O'Connor]

Yeah, they'd probably be terrific for that ... and I am a bike rider.

But they'd also be terrific for your average voyeur, and any number of other people who want to invade your personal space and privacy for various nefarious reasons.                      :)

Hence the probable push for controls over their use, admissibility as evidence under certain restricted and controlled circumstances, and a whole host of other issues that will need to be ironed out.

Just my 2 cents worth ...
