    You might be incidentally in some of those videos/photos, which is fucked up, as the other commenter mentioned, but it’s a lot more difficult to make you the focus of them without your knowledge with a phone or traditional camera than it is with glasses.

    Pick up artists are hitting on people, then posting videos of the interactions, either making fun of them if the PUA got rejected or crowing about having been successful, either one of which can lead to serious online harassment, doxxing, and consequences in real life for the victims. People are also taking pictures and videos of intimate situations and sexual interactions with partners who aren’t aware of it, sometimes without even knowing it themselves.
