Who made this social contract? I certainly didn't. You want to be able to tell everyone else what the social contract is, and assault them if they don't comply.

Fascist.

    When you say "fascist", you do realize that fascism involves crowd control and these glasses are a dream for a fascist regime? All the speech about "cameras everywhere is ok" falls right in the authoritarianism thinking, that's just a step from fascism.

    Control of the public sphere is not a hallmark of fascism, no. Control of the private sphere is.

    Either way though, using violence to force your political views on others is more fascist and more wrong than any amount of surveillance.

    Nah, I see someone wearing a nazi armband, they are getting decked. It's still assault and against the law, but still the right thing to do in regards to maintaining the social contract.

    Political violence is sometimes necessary unfortunately.

    You might argue that someone wearing a Nazi armband is threatening violence due to the inherent violence of Nazi ideology.

    The same cannot be said for wearing some dorky glasses, no matter how much you hate them.

    You don't believe there is a risk the people storing and using tjat footage data could use it for violence or inflicting even in it's broadest definition of violence?

    But that isn't my point. I was always concerned with the political violence is never the answer sentiments.

    This account ^ is going very far out of its way to make very bad points and overlook obvious gaping privacy violations, which are things that can be both identified and stopped.

    The takeaway of massively privacy invading glasses is they can always be stopped at both the individual and the systemic level.
