The pushback to and ultimate failure of Google Glass proves it’s not inevitable.


The fact that every new technology has had pushback before adoption makes your claim meaningless.


That is simply not true. There was no pushback for washing machines or vacuum cleaners or refrigerators, to name just a few.

Furthermore, the point isn’t the pushback but the ultimate failure and thus lack of adoption. I feel like that’s fairly obvious.

This idea that all new tech faces pushback is at best ignorant and at worst a wilful deception to justify every draconian idea pushed forward by tech bros who only care about extracting money from people at all costs.
