Yeah, they mention that it's unsuspicious glasses by the look. We'll have to see what this comes to... When google introduced their Google glasses, people got yelled at on the streets, at least as far as I remember.

I don't think anyone actually got yelled at for wearing them. they were pretty rare to see. I know people who wore them all the time

One disabled guy who posted about it got physically attacked and his glasses broken.

Google Glass stood out like a sore thumb, especially when it was first introduced. These have a form factor that is based on traditional sunglasses.
