Thread: Google Asked User To Remove Glass At Their Own Event

This guy was unpleasantly surprised when the search engine company politely asked him to remove his Glass during a conference. What do you think about that? Google really has a sense of humor or it's just bad advertising when it comes to privacy concerns?

it is unclear as to the reason for this . I would be very worried at this point in time , however I do believe that Google knows what them doing.

I think its neither. Obviously, Google is investing a lot in this technology and don't want their plans and designs divulged to competitors. Google is pioneering this concept and it is understandable why they would disallow any recording devices, even their own Google glass. It's common for these type of conferences to disallow any and all kinds of recording devices.

I'm not surprised about this. Google is investing a lot in this technology and has the right, in my opinion, to ban recording devices.

I didn't really stop to think about the fact that the Google Glass probably gets pretty warm after straining to do one thing for a while, such as recording...
huh.

I think it's fine. Google was doing a presentation and of course, they want the focus on what they're presenting. They also sound like they're pretty protective of their privacy. It might cause a small ruckus if they have to get a Google Glass wearer to stop recording while the presentation is ongoing and that would be disruptive.

It just happened to be ironic due to the nature of Google Glass.

Some events are allowed to be recorded, others not, so no big deal for me. If the product was not launched yet I imagine competition is around and wanting their share, so you have to be careful...

I am not surprised we have to remember that Google glasses do have cameras and video recording software built into them so it only makes since that they will not be allowed in certain areas.

Yes it is understandable that they would not want these types of conferences recorded. that said, In the future as these devices get smaller and harder to detect , it may become pretty impossible to keep recording devices from being used at these events.

I think this guy is just throwing a little fit now to be honest. Google glass has a camera which records so why would he not think they want him to remove it? If they tell you no talking on the phone during the meeting. Do you think it is okay to take in a Google android phone and be able to call up who you want?
