Except the camera outside every shop and on every streetcorner, yeah!

I see what you’re driving at, but CCTV cameras are recording 24/7 on the offchance that the footage is needed, just in case, by a body who is often regulated and monitored. Whereas the concern with the glasses is that they are operated by an otherwise anonymous individual and the recording is more likely to be targeted rather than a broadly cast net. The very reason the first camera phones had to be re-engineered to add mandatory shutter sounds to them.

Yes, and many of those are illegal as well. Many home cameras (as part of video doorbells) are pointed at public streets, and they are usually illegal as well. See for example: autoriteitpersoonsgegevens.nl/…/rules-for-camera-…
