This is hypothetical - the glasses don’t fact-check what people say, they somehow detect willful deception, like people expect polygraphs to do, but with high accuracy. Would people welcome these, fear them, object on privacy grounds? I think it would be very contentious. Would people feel different if they only fed the information to the wearer but didn’t record or send it anywhere? What exactly would the issues be?

    I strive for honestly in almost all things. I have a few relationships where honesty doesn’t really work unless I want them to become very stressed out - innocuous inquiries like ‘how are things?’ <surveys the hellscape of our national politics/ society / ai etc.> they’re dealing with dementia already, I can’t be honest in these kinds of interactions.
