    I agree in principle, but not execution. How is that going to be determined, is my frame too thick? The glasses too heavy? Does it still count if i sew its camera into my backpack strap? Or mount it inconspicuously on my shoulder? What if the camera is in my phone?

    What i’m getting at is that banning the form factor of surveillance glasses while allowing other forms of modern consumer electronics to continue existing is at best as effective as the Internet ID laws are at protecting kids.

      Yeah, you’re right. The ban should be more outright. Every country should strive to ban every product and service related to Mark Zuckerberg.
