Reminds me of Google glass or whatever it was called. It's not that people aren't ready, it's just a bad idea

It's annoying how tech bros phrase products and services so that you don't get to say no, it's something like not right now or people aren't ready. Lots of stuff from pop ups for OneDrive in windows to press releases about Google glass. It's fascist.

No your product or service is unwanted and no means no.

They are not that keen on obtaining consent. In every regard.

They spike terms of service with no ethical opt out and call it a day.
