For everyone who saw this and became concerned about privacy, remember that it's only pulling publically available data.

If YOU post a picture of yourself on the internet with your name, where you went to college and all of these things, then YOU are at fault.

"Privacy is necessary for an open society in the electronic age. Privacy is not secrecy. A private matter is something one doesn’t want the whole world to know, but a secret matter is something one doesn’t want anybody to know. Privacy is the power to selectively reveal oneself to the world."

If YOU are posting this kind of information on publically facing websites of anykind, it is YOUR fault for not *selectively* revealing yourself to the world.

This should be a wake up call to scrub your digital footprint now.

That particular project only has access to publicly available data. Now put those glasses and the software into the hands of "the law" and that changes everything.

Its way worse than you think.

These glasses in the hands of law enforcement would be nothing but a neat toy. They already have your picture in your drivers license. They can already subpoena social media for IP addresses.

In the hacker methodology, this information would be called the footprinting stage. In law enforcement, it would be called digital investigations. The same techniques that this video automates has long been in use already.

Right but in this particular case they would just walk around while screening pedestrians as they walk past. No cause, no reason just constant identification and profiling of anyone walking by. And yes, of course they'd be connected to the DMV among other databases.
