Not that "secretly" taken: one of the subjects is indicating the camera, and most subjects are also looking straight at it.

More like "unauthorizedly" taken.

It looks to arouse the same response you might get from Google Glass.

When approached by a young man with a camera lens sticking out of his jacket, younger subjects seem to be amused; some of the older subjects are not.

I suspected the same, but maybe he was actually explaining it in some of the photos.

In those days I doubt they would know what it is even if they notice something
