Oh you sweet summer child 😂
I was thinking things like skimming credit card numbers or some creep hearing you give you phone number to the clerk and stalking you.
Video is different, but the ability to record 24/7 has all kinds of criminal possibilities.
You were specifically talking about pervert uses. That's not perverted.
That is perverted though. Touche.
What’s stopping the creep from doing this with any other available audio recording device right now? You don’t need an Apple Watch to do any of that.
You could make the same argument about the glasses, I guess
I think the glasses are different because they are not as easily spotted as other video recording devices. Especially when someone disables the recording indicator (that is not very visible in the first place). They can be mistaken for normales glasses more easily.
An audio recording device can record without being seen by the other party.
That's not true at all, we've had cheap tiny hidden bodyworn recording devices for a long time.
Instead of glasses how about a cross: https://blackpointsecurity.com/products/black-cross-necklace-hidden-spy-camera-with-dvr.html
Or maybe in a pen in your pocket: https://blackpointsecurity.com/products/mini-spy-full-hd-pen-recorder-camera.html
