AR Status

Augmented Reality glasses are coming.

They will show us information about the places around us (especially stores).

They will show us the name and role of people at work.

But for strangers, there will be nothing. Privacy etc.

Unless… they choose to transmit something. It is unlikely to be anything personal because everyone, even criminals, will be able to read it, on their AR screen, when they look at you.

But it could be a status you set, maybe temporarily, more like what people adorn their cars with…

  • Go The 49ers!
  • Don’t Waste Water!
  • Single and Looking
  • DTF
  • They/them
  • Yes, it is a real Gucci bag
  • I am 6ft 7, no need to ask
  • I was born here, just like you
  • I just need $3 for some food
  • $75 for a BJ

Of course if this becomes a thing, expect it to be exploited by scammers as well.
