That depends on what you think the problem is.

Sure, if you think it's "people don't like Google Glass", ditching the camera is one option.

If, on the other hand, you think the problem is "people don't like being recorded when they don't know it", Glass is just a symptom. Even if Glass made recording super-obvious or ditched the camera entirely, someone would just make "Black Glass" that didn't or stick a tiny cameras in other things (watches? baseball caps? ...).

Personally, I think the real problem is the latter. All the excessive focus on Google Glass just distracts us from that. And that's unfortunate, because the real problem is much thornier than the Glass problem.



Behold, tiny cameras:

And this is just the obvious crap you get for $50 off Amazon.
