"At one end, the glasses are marketed as an everyday assistant – a voice in the frame that tells you what you are seeing. At the other end, people in Nairobi sit annotating the most intimate moments the camera captures: open-plan offices, living rooms, bedrooms, bathrooms.
One annotator sums it up:
“You think that if they knew about the extent of the data collection, no one would dare to use the glasses”."

@krazykitty "You think that if they knew about the extent of the data collection, no one would dare to use the glasses." Sounds (to me) like a valid reason to warn as many prospective customers as possible. People giving away $459 and the last remaining bits of privacy they thought they had, in return for some snazzy-looking eyewear that occasionally pops up useful information within their field of vision.
