Given the type of person who would wear glass it's probably less likely that they would beat someone up as post passive aggressive posts on reddit then cyber stalk them.

Seems unlikely that just comparing old pictures to another picture will work that well for facial recognition, but maybe I'm wrong.

In the article it says you have to "jailbreak" your glass to install it. So this won't change the world or nothin.

This technology really has to mature before being employed by government agencies.

There are many similar looking people in this world.
