Congressman Barton grandstanding re Google Glass

http://j.mp/162esHJ  (House.gov)

      "Barton "disappointed" by response to Google Glass privacy
      concerns."

Barton is grandstanding. It's way, way too early for Google to even be
considering privacy policy changes due to Glass. This is a new
technology -- that will be deployed not only by Google but by many
other firms with their own concepts and knock-offs. Talking about
changing privacy policies now in this context would be like offering
to marry someone based only on seeing their profile photo. Good luck
with that.
