Editorial from the previous day of the 23rd report:
"Why don’t I just give up the guy up the chain, ’cause they are not interested in me. ... who is my boss and why am I recording the movie?" the man said he was asked.
There is a small internal light on the device that goes on when the user is recording. If the feds and the MPAA are going to bust people for using Google Glass, they should at least learn how the device works.

This man refuses to sue, but it's not for himself he should, but to protect civil liberties. Google get on this shit, talk to him, set the precedent NOW
- Anyone here with ties to Google? This is prime ACLU territory, guess who could make this story top search resultZOOP

just another little bit and I'll shuddup:
" I kept telling them that Glass has a USB port and not only did I allow them, I actually insist they connect to it and see that there was nothing but personal photos with my wife and my dog on it. I also insisted they look at my phone too and clear things out, but they wanted to talk first. They wanted to know who I am, where I live, where I work, how much I’m making, how many computers I have at home, why am I recording the movie, who am I going to give the recording to, why don’t I just give up the guy up the chain, ’cause they are not interested in me. Over and over and over again." http://www.businessinsider.com/m…
- Boohoo...utopian
- by your logic utopian, since my shoe can fit up your ass it's a weapon and I should be questioned about it endlesslyZOOP
- by your logic ZOOP, you should probably become a liberal lawyer and represent Fox News.utopian
- that made no sense. you're taking one quote from an intimidated person and running with it. bravoZOOP
- the issue: taxpayer dollars are used here to protect corporate interests, completely ignoring personal freedomsZOOP
- since your agenda is to condemn Americans as idiots, you pick and choose, whilst the point is lost on youZOOP

I'm with ZOOP on this one.
Every smartphone today has a camera, should they be left at the door of the theater upon arrival? No. The social etiquette is to not use your phone in a theater. It is not forced from your hands, (though you may be shot by a retired cop) as you seat yourself.
What this lacks is trust and education on behalf of the agent in question. Not the other patrons, not the theater in which he'd worn them before, but the guy who THOUGHT he understood the technology, which he obviously didn't.
It was only his blatant misuse of power that turned this into a situation more than a simple exchange between two individuals that could have been as easy as:
Are those Google Glasses you're wearing? You can not record video in a theater sir, that is a crime.
I understand sir. Yes they are Google Glasses, they are prescription, and as you can see by the lack of a record indicator light, I am not recording.

I think at this point, until this kinda thing is commonplace, you would have to be dumber than a bag of broken iphones to not at least half expect people at a bar might be a wee miffed about the idea of being recorded up close.
Doesn't matter if the thing is recording or not, if it's on your head the perception is it's rollin' and posting live to Youtube. Some people will always have a problem with that.
Leave it in your bag nerds or face the wrath of the drunken bar patron.
- totally, the chick is acting as if she was from a discriminated race of some sort 'trying to raise awareness'Miguex
- awarness of what you CUNT, several patrons at the bar stated that you entered loudly an obnoxiosly..Miguex
- hahahaha I'm all upset at that bitch nowMiguex
- She was egging them on by recording them. No respect for privacy.instrmntl

But of course, same thing that happened with people putting their cellphone on leather holsters on their belt buckle with tucked shirts on.Then it was the bluetooth on the ear 24/ 7.
Now it's google glass, and it's probably the same people that tucked their shirt w the phone holster on, they find comfort on ridiculous accessories that attract unwanted attention, don't blame the technology, you know what you decided the day you said, you know what would look great on my face? a computer!
