Google Releases Glass Kernel Source Code

Posted by samzenpus on from the get-you-one dept.

hypnosec writes "Google has released the kernel source code of Google Glass publicly just a couple of days after the wearable gadget was rooted by Jay Freeman. Releasing the source code, Google has noted that the location is just temporary and it would be moving to a permanent location soon saying: 'This is unlikely to be the permanent home for the kernel source, it should be pushed into git next to all other android kernel source releases relatively soon.'"

    Protip: putting your cell phone in people's faces to record them will result in you being shunned at the least, and having your face punched in at the worst.

    Protip: walk away from a Google glass wearer, and cover part of your face, before returning to punch in their face. We'll teach google and them, we just have to take basic precautions as we launch them, on their serendipitous journey to social norms and sensitivity, back of the head first.
