This tech could easily work with any type of camera too, that's a lot harder to identify than glasses with a light that turns on when its recording. Hidden cameras on pins, necklaces, clothing, etc.
What a world we live in
I think the biggest concern is how easy it is to do. Not everyone has a CIA surveillance pin.
not many people are likely to have one but tiny cameras in various forms are quite cheap.
I think they even have pen (like, writing pen) cameras that can fit inside a front pocket for pretty cheap.
Pretty sure China has this tech everywhere in their country
