Tinman57:
  Before GoOgle Glasses even came about, I saw ads in catalogs that I get for video glasses as well as video pens, video buttons and video jewelry.  If they're going to outlaw GoOgle glasses, then they're going to have to outlaw these devices as well.  Otherwise what are they going to do, have you strip down to bare-butt to attend a sensitive meeting or if your around when something "Goes down"?
  The only way I can see to fix this is to use video-blocking hardware which would also interfere with the legal use of these devices, not to mention probably interfering with other video and possibly audio broadcast.

  It's just fine and dandy when the government/law enforcement wants to watch your every move through spy-tech, but it's not OK for the average Joe to use.  :down:

Porn Is Now Banned on Google Glass

http://mashable.com/2013/06/04/glass-porn-ban/

The first pornographic app recently appeared for Google Glass, but it will be a short-lived affair, as Google has changed its Glass Platform Developer Policies last week, prohibiting apps that contain sexually explicit content.

The first paragraph of the "Content policies" section now reads: "We don't allow Glassware content that contains nudity, graphic sex acts, or sexually explicit material. Google has a zero-tolerance policy against child pornography. If we become aware of content with child pornography, we will report it to the appropriate authorities and delete the Google Accounts of those involved with the distribution."

The app that possibly prompted the change is called Tits & Glass, which allowed users to watch sexually explicit photos and videos. The company behind the app, MiKandi, was very happy with the initial response, claiming that nearly 10,000 unique visitors visited TitsAndGlass.com in a day. MiKandi also said it was interested in going a step further and using Google Glass to facilitate "two-way adult interaction".

Mandatory public nudity...in the interest of "National Security". Positively freaking brilliant man! ...Hay if the whole damn thing is going to go off the rails anyhow...I vote we start there!

Congress - now they look as stupid as they sound - should just love the exposure..

 :D

Tinman57:

  I foresee some kind of electronic device to be sold that will interfere with GoOgle glasses recording within X distance away from the device holder for privacy reasons.  Then I see a lawsuit against the manufacturor of said device, and will be a big issue.

  If GoOgle is outlawing nudity and such, then obviously GoOgle is spying on the glass users, which don't surprise me the least.

  As for me..... Just ANOTHER reason I don't use GoOgle products, software or hardware.....
