    Google Glass: The opposition grows



    The opposition will congregate in dark corners.

    They will whisper with their mouths, while their eyes will scan the room for spies wearing strange spectacles.

    The spies will likely be men. How many women would really like to waft down the street wearing Google Glass?

    It won't be easy. Once you've been cybernated, there's no turning back. Which is why the refuseniks are already meeting in shaded corners of the Web.
    One site is called "Stop The Cyborgs." It claims to be "fighting the algorithmic future one bit at a time."

    It's going to take a lot of bitty fighting, but the people behind this site -- they're naturally anonymous, in an attempt to stop Google spying on them -- say they're fighting Google Glass in particular.

    They say that it will herald a world in which "privacy is impossible and corporate control total."

    Some would say that, thanks to Googlies and other bright, deluded sparks, we're there already. The Lord and Master Zuckerberg explained to us a long time ago that he knows us better than we do and that we don't actually want privacy at all.

    Still, the people behind this anti-cyborg movement claim that there's no way you'll ever know that someone wearing Google Glass is recording your every word and movement.

    Google Glass will be a dream come true for stalkers.

    Hey, what's wrong with being spied on if you got nothing to hide, right?

    America, you said this was okay. Have fun with it.

    That sound is everybody typing "Google Glass" in Google's Algorithm Leviathan search engine, which logs their IP, location, search history, suggestions, the list goes on... to figure out how to safeguard their "privacy" from.........Google. LOL

    It's retro-hip. It's cool. It's the "in thing." At least it should be.

    The biggest problem with goggle glass is that it is a distraction and it cost way too much. People are going to have accidents wearing this while they are driving and while they are walking and running. It interferes with part of your vision, and that is not good.

    I have no problem with people wearing it on my property, I just don't want to get sued when they fall down my stairs because they were distracted by their google glasses.

    It's all about taking action and not being lazy. So you do the work, whether it's fitness or whatever. It's about getting up, motivating yourself and just doing it.

    It won't take very long to get them home but it won't be overnight either but Iraq says they can't stay and they are coming home just like Trump said.
