anything or even going to a doctor. I would not allow my doctor to film me,

what is acceptable behavior, not them.

The article makes it sound like Google glass is the first to do anything like
this, and it was all paper manuals before that. In fact, aircraft
manufacturers have been using smart glasses for years to augment workers.
