    I think Lemmy is a bit of a chamber of white, technology-oriented men. People here think that most people are OK with wearing technology on their face.

    Ironically, we’re also very Privacy-oriented, but everyone’s kind of forgetting all the cameras and microphones required to make all this AR tech work.

    Someone put it nicely - if I see you with your Google Glass in a public toilet, you’re leaving with a bloody nose.

      how does race or gender have anything to do with this?

      what makes you think most people wouldn’t be ok with wearing tech on their face?

      maybe you are the one forgetting that cameras and microphones are already in all the products that most people already have. how is AR any different?

        Lack of diversity = lack of diversity of opinion. We are in a tech echo chamber, like it or not.

        And your following two questions are a great illustration of just that.
