"patently" should be discontinued as meaning obviously? It makes it confusing when you look at existing patents...

since their goal doesn't appear to be to stop "terrorists", is their goal to stop unwanted politicians?

I have seen people and some cops with their phone mounted on their chest or shoulder with the camera pointing forward. Also a phone can record audio even if it's hidden (http://www.berkeley.edu/news/media/releases/2005/09/14_key.s...).

Can someone explain why "phones" should not be considered a treat to privacy if you think Google Glass is?

If they had a way to have almost unlimited ground targets (maybe using a rotating mirror, or something like https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/117421627/the-peachy-pr...), I could deal with the not so bad ~240ms lag for most of my communications (if you aren't gaming), especially if it's faster then my slow cable connection....
