Google's Glass may be banned before release!

Looks like Google’s Project Glass (which now just seems to be called Glass) may have really opened a whole can of worms as many more organisations and businesses have banned them from their premises.

As you can see here, there are a whole range of privacy issues also.

 

Personally, I think the concept of Glass has amazing and revolutionary opportunities for the way we shop, communicate and navigate. But as always there are always the negatives and the potential for abuse and harm which always seems to surround new technology, especially one such as this which could record people’s movements without any hint of such an action being undertaken.

 

So perhaps if Google’s Glass does fail, it won’t be due to the technology at all, but rather legislation.
