Those who worry that Google Glass carriers will be able to automatically recognize the faces of those around them can breathe easy. Google has said that this will not happen.
Google has updated the developers policy regarding the digital glasses Google Glass. New rules prohibit the use of automatic face recognition applications. A post on Google+ reads:
For several years, as already mentioned, we will not add facial recognition technology to our products without strong personal data protection. For this reason, such applications will not be approved.
Google also noted that developers are not allowed to turn off the display of Google Glass while using the device’s camera. This was a reaction to public concern that Glass owners could secretly take pictures of everything around them. The fact that the camera is in the on state can be recognized by the luminous display in front of the user's eyes.
In addition, the developers' policies regarding Glass do not allow for the incitement of interracial strife, sex research, online gambling and overly explicit material.
We listen to user opinions. In line with this, we have updated the existing developer policy regarding Glass. We will continue to keep user feedback, a Google spokesman said.
Recall that last week MiKandi, a mobile content store for adults, promised to release the first porn app for Google Glass.
