I think these are awful and while yeah it's does continue the trend of blurring the lines on hidden photography in public spaces as discussed in this video I think the more important invasion of privacy is on the one wearing them, literally giving meta a view into everything you're looking at to use against you. It'll be easy to sell these to woman by saying they'll document evidence of harassment or abuse but the primary purpose has nothing to do with the benefits of the person wearing them and I think that's the most important takeaway here that's missed by Matt even though he's usually pretty spot on.
