Look, on the one hand they allow perverts to covertly film your children and upload the footage to pedophelia forums. On the other hand, they can save someone half a second by projecting in front of them information they'd otherwise have to glance at their phone to get. What's a regulator to do?!

"But Dmitry, my [hyper-specific job] really benefits from these!" Awesome, and Ukrainian army infantry platoons really benefit from grenade launchers but we've figured out ways to equip them without letting anyone just buy them on Amazon and take them to the local playground.

Folks, I'm begging you. "They can be useful to people with disabilities though!" Yes they can, which is why we should heavily regulate them. A wearable designed to help the deaf hear or partially visually impaired people see absolutely doesn't need video recording or Facebook-linked facial ID!

The next step down from glasses-with-a-cam is glasses with a wireless connection to a cam, or a phone with a wireless connection to glasses with a display. Ultimately it's cams not glasses that are the issue and maybe regulation of all public photography and video is where this is headed
