You Can't Say 'Fuck' on Google Glass
If Google wants a face computer on every paying human, it's going to have to get over its lingual prudishness immediately—because right now, the device won't recognize dirty words, and there's no way to change that. You know, because it's strapped to your face.
This isn't the first time Google has followed Apple's puritanical streak and tried to censor the internet. It's definitely more insidious. Not allowing users to look up porn through an image search is one thing—there are always other ways. But not listening to certain words we use because someone at a corporation finds them objectionable? Words that we're going to be using probably every single day? That's something else entirely. If I pay $1,500 fucking dollars for a phone I'm going to wear on my head and overlay images over reality itself, it sure as shit better listen to everything I say. [Geekwire via Betabeat]
