I agree, it has uses but they're pretty niche. When I talked about how it's unnecessary for people, I meant normal people who don't have such niche needs or objective.

It is a brilliant tool only if it's used correctly.

    "Oh, the kids can't consent so we'll just go ahead and do what we like. We are adults, we always know what's right for them and we care for them so much."

    It's crazy to me how much taking consent from a minor before doing anything to them is neglected, as if they do not have a brain at all but the second they turn 18, they should understand everything and be responsible and are also expected to follow what society wants them to do. Just because someone is a minor, doesn't mean you can do anything to them because "they're a minor" and "you are an adult."

    Consent matters even if the person is a minor.

    That sounds very dystopian to me. Have we humans reached such a low that we need to be reminded of the person's name we are talking to even though we've met them before or business relationships, or what we talked with them?

    The glasses I wear everyday which do not contain any kind of electronics already does its job perfectly. Smart Glasses are an unnecessary extra, created merely due to the rise of trend of 'en-smartify every product and implement it with unnecessary electronics and spyware.'

    Some people in the comment section are really dumb switching to other alternatives thinking that Proton isn't trustworthy because they gave the information despite the organisation not using anonymous currency. What's ironic is that some of these people are switching to those alternatives where you can't even use anonymous currency.

    Also, kind of a clickbait title.
