Researchers built what may be the first spyware proof-of-concept for Google Glass. When installed, the app directs Glass to take a picture every 10 seconds and upload the images to a remote server. The Glass wearer has no idea that what he’s looking at is being photographed because the app only works when the device’s display is off. Google became aware of the spyware after the researchers’ professor tweeted about their work.
