I’m honestly intrigued by this attitude, and it’s shared by so many people. What is it you consider creepy? Always having a camera ready? That’s already the case with everyone having smartphones. Is it being “secretly” recorded? Because that again seems more likely to happen with people hiding or covering smartphones that are filming than someone starring directly at you.
I think one key factor is that almost no one will expect glasses or sunglasses to also be cameras or video recorders.
Consider if you’re in a locker room, and today you see someone with their iPhone aimed at you, there’s a good chance they could be taking a picture or a video. Now you have to be concerned about whether or not their glasses or sunglasses are taking a picture or video of you.
It’s a violation of expectation of privacy due to an unexpected new type of “spycam”.

Im sure they got the name Ray-Ban "Stories" as the glasses will have quite a tale to tell on everyone.
