Someone did that already actually: Here's the article
Ironic that it's a cooperation with Google.
Well, 11 years ago anyway.
Oh wow. This reeks of embrace-and-extinguish. That doesn't mean that an ironic backfiring isn't possible though.
I actually dread the day that augmented reality becomes so unobtrusive that it becomes as ubiquitous as smart phones. I guarantee that this means less funding for garbage disposal, since you can just block the garbage on the streets. It would mean even less compassion for the homeless, since you can just disable them in your view. It would mean a filter even the pedestrians you see: You’re a racist? Block all non-whites.
If only it were real 😔
