All this controversy is showing is if the surveillance device is obvious, people get upset. If its hidden, people seem to be okay with it.
Like, your tvs have cameras inside your home watching you and sending that to a corporation but some dude with glasses out in public is the line? Like, it makes zero sense to me. People embraced all these video, audio, location and other surveillance data gathering devices throughout their lives but the glasses are too far? None of this shit should be acceptable but if its hidden and it's a government or corporation recording you, everyone is aokay with it.
