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.
It's worth pointing out that absolutely nothing about this interaction was corroborated except for the fact that there was an issue and the customer left.
What 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...
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.
How the hell does this Nick Starr loser keep getting media coverage. It's too bad he didn't go through with one of his threatened suicide attempts several years back. This little fag just screams for attention all the time and it's unclear why he gets ANY media coverage ever. Didn't realize he ever left SF. Anyone who's ever had the change to cross paths with this loser knows exactly what I'm talking about. And yes, Google glass is a DOA product for replacing cellphones because of the social awkwardness that arises. Leave it for the doctors, drivers, etc. But I refuse to talk to anyone at a party that's wearing that fucking thing.

Banning glass because it has a camera is silly.
They should ban people too, because people can have photographic memories!!
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.
