minus-squareRiskable@programming.devlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up2·13 hours agoLet me take a moment to state a universal truth: There’s no such thing as “too much regulation.” There’s just good regulation and bad regulation. Want to regulate a category of technology that covers, “glasses with built-in cameras”? Ok! We’ll just mount the camera somewhere else. Or perhaps you want to regulate cameras that have lenses too small to notice from say, a dozen paces? Well, that would ban cameras on smartphones. Why not ban strapping smartphones to your head while you’re at it? That’s basically what these glasses are, after all. Tell us: What, specific regulations would you be looking for?
