Take a look at this!
link disabled

Even worse than "remote home security" systems that allow you - and others - to spy on your home while you're out...

Edit...apparently this link is corrupt security-wise so i have doctored.it in the hope no one catches anything from it!

A new app for google glass enabled face recognition that gives the viewer access to your personal info, name, any social media profiles, even notice of criminal records.

Though google have "banned it for now" apparently two million profiles have already been uploaded to tge "data bank" without notifying the owners..

The system dies not require opting in but if you want to be protected you have to sign up and opt OUT.

Is this even legal?

Hope this one works for everyone. It is slightly different but essentially the same issue.
