Gee, maybe there might be some practical, social and legal problems with always recording camera glasses…

Pretty sure they won't care except if it ends with a multi-billions$ fine. The intent is that by the time, their "smart-glasses" are everywhere and banning them no longer seems reasonable.

So they'll settle for "privacy settings by default", meaning they commit to not record anything except if the user expilicitly activate it, and it should be very visible for people around.

They'll wait a good 6 months before an update introduces back a silent auto-record of some kind, because that company never gave a flying fuck about the law, its users or basic decency.
