To be clear this is not a real product or whatever I would just be interested in people's thoughts.

Do you think you would like privacy focused smart goggles? Eg: no camera/hardware camera lock, all on device intelligence, signal support, idk what else you guys can leave ideas in the comments.

The problem there is nobody else will know if yours are the privacy friendly glasses with a camera or not. They'll just see smart glasses w/ camera. I certainly wouldn't associate with someone wearing those fucking things, and I'm not going to bother to research which models are which.

    What if the glasses come with a little flag stuck in the frame that says "I'm born blind, this thing helps me be less disabled. It's not filming you."? I mean, there are genuinely helpful use cases for such things out there.

    If its a camera it's filming. I've never heard of any smart glasses that help blind people, I'd need to know what it was doing with the video. If it's being sent to a cloud service I'm still going to avoid them. Sorry but I'm trying to minimize the amount of my image that's going to these fucking data companies.
