    All photography and recording is disallowed. So, no shit glass is banned. I assume it has something to do with archaic SEC regulations. But, lets not let that stop writing stupid articles

      I agree. Android phones are also banned. This is just another attempt to jump on the Glass privacy bandwagon.

      Yeah, and the principle is absurd. Can you fly a plane into Boeing's AGM?

    Anything with a camera... who would have thought Glass would be any different? I'm confused as to why anyone would be surprised about this.

    I don't think it's the filming that's illegal, but just the publishing. So Google Glass should be fine as long as people don't upload it to Youtube afterwards.
