Google Glasses is the technology giant Google's augmented reality eyewear project, allowing you to take photos, record videos, surf the internet. But it is not without limits.
At present, only a few developers can use the version, even so, because of security, privacy or copyright reasons, some places and some activities have banned the use of Google glasses,
We have a list of places where some of them have stated that they want to ban the use of Google Eyewear, and some may do so. Any place that bans mobile phones or video devices is highly likely to prohibit the use of Google glasses, so you can't wear Google glasses to places like government buildings, striptease clubs, casinos, or even the locker rooms of a gym.
"For Google Eyewear, it's a very early stage and we hope that people's behavior and social habits will change with the development of other new technologies, such as mobile phones," said a Google spokesman to CNET's website. ”
1. Diving
Scuba diving is the only place where Google clearly stated that it is not suitable for use with Google glasses. Diving geeks, I'm sorry to ruin your dreams.
2. Lap Dance Club
For well-known reasons, strip clubs have banned the existence of any video equipment. Because I do not know whether people wearing Google glasses will be talking to people while secretly recording video, so the club owners to prohibit the use of this device is completely reasonable.
3. Cinema
It is not trivial to secretly record pirated video in a movie theater, and Google glasses will only make the issue of copyright more serious. That's why Regal Entertainment Group has banned its use. Also, if you wear Google Glasses, how do you wear 3D glasses?
4. Casinos
If you have been to the casino, you should know that there are some very strict rules, such as the ban on photography, which can prevent cheating, on the other hand can also protect the privacy of others. NBC News has interviewed a number of casino bosses who believe that Google glasses shouldn't be there.
5. Some specific bars and commercial establishments
Shortly after Google's glasses were released, a Seattle pub said it would ban customers who wear Google glasses and that other business sites might follow. The commentary argues that this is more of a technical fear than to protect people's rights. What do you think?
6. Your friend's home
Currently, Google Eyewear is only available to a handful of developers, so you can't let anyone else use it. Google has officially banned the lending and sale of Google glasses.
7, in the car
It's not officially written into law, but it's likely to be. Google thinks you can wear Google glasses while driving, because it depends on how you use it. But in West Virginia, there are already people who have been banned from driving while wearing Google glasses.
8. Gym Locker Room
It's just speculation, but it's reasonable. In the gym's locker room there are some specific behaviors to keep people's privacy, while Google glasses violates many rules.
9. Doctor's office
Doctors ' offices need to protect privacy more than anywhere else. Google glasses can break many rules.
10. Government Building
Assuming that Google glasses are also banned in any place where cameras are banned, the use of Google Eyewear will be banned in courts, government buildings and military installations. This means that if you want to go to the White House, you'll have to leave your glasses at home.
