    The US police doesn’t even care if people are overtly filming them killing people without cause

    Not true. They hate it.

    they still get away with it.

    The individual police officer might, but filming them is for your protection from a wrongful conviction and to secure damages should they break the law during the arrest.

    Also, it is fairly easy to see the camera lenses on smart glasses, they could easily find a way to knock the glasses off your face and step on them to look like a plausible accident.

    This sounds far more contrived than knocking a phone out of your hand.

    You take them to court, the police department pays, best case, the police is transferred to another district.

    A few hundred thousand dollars is a lot of money to most people. Maybe not to you though.

    It is far better to have a dashcam with a fisheye lens in your car, it is easily overlooked and and has a large FOV, while also picking up sound.

    Sure, but when you are a pedestrian, this isn’t an option.

        I don’t use them, but if I lived in a country where the police habitually abuse innocent citizens and get away with it, I would carry a camera on my person 24/7.

        Baseless insinuation in an ineffective attempt to smear, not withstanding.

              So far I have yet to see any evidence that smart glasses is an effective tool for recoding police.

                Should we limit the rights of trans people to visit women’s restrooms and changing rooms because some perverts use that loop hole to abuse women as well?

                I want you to be consistent in your application of the law.

                  Put that goalpost back where it was, we’re talking about meta glasses and the inappropriate use, but, to answer crazy with crazy, if, for some miraculous reason, trans people gained the ability to record with their eyes and upload it to the internet, we’d have to probably do something about it, but, as far as I know, they can’t secretly record videos with their eyes, unless they can and they’re all keeping it a secret from us… can you lot record videos with your eyes? that would be pretty fucking cool if you could.

                    And I brought up the right of men to enter women’s spaces and the inappropriate use of that right. It is not my fault that you can’t follow a very simple train of thought.

                    but, to answer crazy with crazy

                    Again, your inability to understand might make reason seem crazy, but go off king.

                    if, for some miraculous reason, trans people gained the ability to record with their eyes and upload it to the internet, we’d have to probably do something about it,

                    What about if trans people physically and sexually abuse women in women’s spaces? What then?
