Irony of the Day


"Google Glass Explainer Too Little for Privacy-Sensitive Congress Members"

Members of Congress today expressed disappointment with Google's response to their petition for the technology company to address and explain its Google Glass privacy policies.

"I am disappointed in the responses we received from Google," Rep. Joe Barton, R-Texas, said in a statement released today. "There were questions that were not adequately answered and some not answered at all.

"Google Glass has the potential to change the way people communicate and interact. When new technology like this is introduced that could change societal norms, I believe it is important that people's rights be protected and vital that privacy is built into the device."
