really curious if this will be the dam-breaking product for LIFEVLOGGING or still a bridge too far for most people - i'm only marginally sure it won't happen until AR contact lenses are a Thing

I was ready to poo poo on this but it seems like someone at snapchat had a legit good idea recording oversized square videos with live rotation on playback so your phone looks like a portal

no. the cameras are always front-facing and have no physical way to indicate when you aren't recording. the "i'm shovin ga camera in your face why are you mad i'm not touching you" effect will still occur.

without a way to physically block the lens (iris, shutter, etc) these will never be widely accepted. (remember that many people will put masking tape over the camera on their laptops)

my thinking is that if i'm ever being targeted such that somebody is trying to worm their way into my camera without me noticing then i have much bigger problems than

i'm also not a woman, which likely impacts my risk analysis as people are less likely to try to steal all my pics

Tfw you frame the camera to put the dildo in the background just out of view and someone tilts their phone and sees it.

did you not hear about the one redeeming feature of the phone with no headphone jack

but yeah this thing doesn't have that and i guess doesn't have a screen to even preview your shots on (unless you have to pair it to your phone in which case what's the point) and is meant for single use 10 second photos so just :rip: all round i guess

the difference between this and glass is that the Snapchat thing is going to be worn by a teenager at Chipotle with their friends who want to be photographed, whereas glass was going to be worn by turbonerds recording people they don't know at Starbucks.
