You mean having all the information you want proactively projected in you field of view, instead of having to take out your phone and search for it doesn't sound appealing to you?

I'm probably on the opposite side then. I worry that AR will be so appealing that people will willingly give away their last shred of privacy.

This use case is saying "it's a monitor, up close".

Yet another screen doesn't excite me.

It's a monitor, up close, that reacts in real-time to what's in front of you and augments it (hence the name) with additional information. Preferably in a wearable format, so that you can have both your hands free to do the work.
