Why did normies have to kill this?
This could have led to some awesome AR stuff like in Accel world but normies were too worried if people were taking pictures of them
What I don't understand is the whole fucking Snapchat glasses now, they video like Google glass and normies are fine with it because "omg Snapchat lol" and people still take pictures of everyone else when they're out with their phones anyway, you can legally take pictures and video in public
Why did normal fags have to kill such cool tech?

Uncanny Valley.
Google Glass was not subtle enough to be ignored, but was just subtle enough for people to WORRY about being monitored by people thinking they're slick.
To contrast, the snapchat glasses are SUPER OBVIOUS RETARD GLASSES that you cannot sneak around with, and are kind of embarrassing to look at. There's no way someone can hope to conceal these things, and they look like a toy.

Guess your right, still, would be awesome having the equivalent of my smartwatch as a HUD.
Does anyone know if one would still work alright if I bought one from eBay?
Does it connect to your phone with Bluetooth like smartwatches or is it standalone and require Googlers servers that it's probably shutdown by now?

>What is multiple generations of products being improved upon with each generation
lack of ubiquity killed glass and created concern over privacy.
google price the explorer editions far too high - if they sold them at cost they would have sold hundreds of thousands if not millions - everyone would know if someone else was recording because they'd know how the things worked.
glass was a shit device anyway.
the AR/MR revolution will be here by 2020 anyway.
