#4 He doesn’t like it, so he tries to get the server fired. It’s a total
(expletive) move.

#5What if someone has their smartphone out at the restaurant? Are they asked to put it away or leave for fear of everyone's privacy? Just because someone is wearing Glass doesn't mean they are constantly shooting photos you know...
Re: Seattle Restaurant Ejects Customer Wearing Google Glass
#6What about using Glass to translate the menu on the fly?
Or building a Glass compatible menu that lets Glass users see videos of the dishes?
Banning glass because it has a camera is silly.
They should ban people too, because people can have photographic memories!!

The restaurant is trying make a comfortable atmosphere for their customers. If they feel that someone wearing a camera on their head will make their customers uncomfortable, they have every right to not allow them to wear it. Your response makes you look like an entitled child who gets upset when they are told no.

If someone had their phone up and continually aiming it around the room, then you can be sure they'd be asked to stop or leave. The problem with Glass is that you cannot tell if they are or not. Rather than risk their customers being uncomfortable, they decided to be proactive and protect them. That seems perfectly reasonable.

There's absolutely nothing wrong with this argument. That's why it's generally accepted for people to set up video cameras in locker rooms. I might have a photographic memory, so you might as well let me video you.

locker room != restaurant.
crime != policy
And I'm not saying video. I'm saying banning because capability of taking video. Cell phones are not banned in locker rooms. Recording with them is.
