This Wired article about augmented reality and AR glasses being the next big thing
https://www.wired.com/story/mirrorworld-ar-next-big-tech-platform/
starts off pretty enticingly, but after a while I had to ask myself how would this impact visually impaired people? people with mental health issues? people too poor to afford the shiny expensive tech?

Also, porn: Sure, the article goes on about all the productive uses for the new tech, but you know it will just come down, as it were to porn, and what would be the AR equivalent of getting porn texts? Would naked women be popping up everywhere?

And finally: *sigh* One more distraction for the sighted people to not watch where they are going.
