You collect enough information over a long enough period of time so that an investigator can trivially search a dumped archive of email to verify your claims. be your own

the only thing that might drive up the cost would be the lens setup (of which i know nothing) otherwise everything is literally just commodity phone parts in a plastic shell

within a year we'll probably see google fund some film where google glass is an integral part of the plot, almost a character like, maybe a paranormal murder mystery where the investigator finds the victim's Google Glass™

oh hey it turns out that google glass is poo poo if you actually try to use it in the real world http://www.computerworld.com/s/article/print/9248434/Why_I_m_sending_back_Google_Glass?taxonomyId=128&pageNumber=1 lol at the proprietary earbud that uses the charging port, which means you can't listen to anything and charge at the same time which lol because the battery is terrible and pumps heat into the side of your face which just lol man, lol.

Stereotype posted:you can block radio communications pretty easily with a noise generator, an amplifier, and an antenna, but damaging them is much much more difficult. Most electronics have current limiters on their front end receiver amps so you'd have a tough time damaging those, and getting a high enough electric field at any reasonable distance from you to cause an inductive current spike on a PCB would be pretty much impossible. look, i don't care if it's impossible. i want either this or a device which projects a field of silence in a bubble around itself ~orders a half dozen supercaps and one of this belt clip static discharge thingies~
