I hate it. I don't want to speak to people who are wearing one.
I feel like that with being photographed. Being in a room full of smartphones, and associating me with them in a large database somewhere. Having someone's kids use tick tock on my home network. Etc etc. We are massively under corporate surveillance, and I despise it.
I'm going to actively avoid people doing so, and I feel like others will as well.
If someone walks up to you and they're filming you on their phone, how would most people react?
Fortunately there's almost no chance of this thing getting off the ground
What if it looked like a Star Trek communicator?
I... I've never really watched Star Trek. I think I could get into it but I've just never really sat down and watched it. I've probably only seen an episode or two in my whole life.
I'll see myself out.
What if it looked like Iggy Pop? Zac Efron?
I'm just imagining people walking around with smart Iggy Pop badges and having AI conversations with them.
