I get they're hinting at using Google Glass for filming porn, but lets face it, no pair of glasses will ever produce high definition video as good as an actual camera. Maybe for amateur porn, but I'm sure amateur porn is probably being shot on mobile phones at the moment anyway. I'd take a Canon 7D for filming video over any pair of glasses any day of the week. Would a pair of glasses like Google Glass even have the capability to shoot long duration high definition video? Battery life, bandwidth and storage would be massive issues to overcome, you've seen what HD recording does to a mobile phone battery.

Google Glass will change how we access content on the go. The ability to look at a sign in another language and have it translated into your native language, now that's the kind of change I could get behind.

The one thing I worry about advances like Google Glass changing is child pornography. I believe devices like Google Glass will make it easier for creeps to secretly film children in shopping centres and parks, the beach or wherever. As someone who is planning on having children soon, that thought scares me.
