But I'm more pissed off about is that beside the individuals, it's also being saved by corporations on an unprecedented and almost inconceivable scale. But it doesn't even stop at that massive privacy invasion - that data is then used, processed and extrapolated to wring every known piece of data out of it, to make a profit for those companies. Plus, since it's stored, they will also use it in the future, in ways we haven't even considered right now.

All of which without you knowing, or your consent. Creeps are one problem, but imho it's nothing compared to the companies that actually profit from it.

Over here it’s legal to record any conversation you are a part of or can “reasonably hear”. So no parabolic shotgun mics allowed

Obligatory: you have been able to record people without consent since the 80s.

Where? In my country (Spain) has never been prohibited in public spaces, except in recent years that record the police has been forbidden. ACAB

Should we shame people with phones if their phone has a microphone?

But then I thought, Deus Ex wasn't supposed to be an instruction manual.

The camera-free glasses, code-named Luna, will still feature an array of six microphones

So the glasses will still record innocent bystanders without consent, only without video? That's not much better. The shaming will and should continue.
