Unfortunately we need another law because people wanna be bros and douchebags. I don't care how good your game is if you do this ypu are a coward not a real man.

    What we need is to reform the culture that normalizes and rewards this sort of behavior.

    That would require an admission that feminists are correct about toxic masculinity and patriarchy, at the very least, but in the current social climate of mens' rights grifters and toxic misogynists that doesn't seem possible.

    Laws won't be enough. Look at Japan. They're extremely strict about this sort of thing to the point of having sex-separated train cars but harassment still happens there all the time because the culture (and by extension the politics) is extremely patriarchal.

    Change has to happen from the ground up, not the top down.

It's amazing as, however good they could be at technology, they are so bad at just reading the room.

AI/smart glasses companies don't realise it yet it seems but I feel the backlash against smart glasses is likely to be very brutal before it becomes legal/regulatory.

As in: stolen, broken glasses on the spot. Perhaps even glasses with coloured "fuck AI & cameras" stickers on it will be a trend.

    Downvote as much as you want, this is a simple observation of a truth of life: introducing/forcing antisocial behaviour on people (filming without their consent, "cosplaying" intellect (with AI)) begets antisocial behaviour.

    Surprised you are getting downvoted - that's exactly how you get quick legal response, by taking actions that destabilise society. It doesn't matter who is right necessarily.
