Ever since Google Glass’s official announcement and its widespread coverage over social media and the internet, there have been many concerns raised about the security of the device, what it does and what its supposed to do.

Google has published an official FAQ page for Glass in an effort to alleviate some of these concerns and explain exactly what the team at Mountain View are trying to achieve with this extensive project.

Specifically, Google covers in-depth issues raised regarding privacy concerns, app policies and technology addiction. There’s also a ton of other information on the FAQ, telling you what Glass is, how it can be used in your day-to-day life, when it will be available to the general public and loads more detailed information related to this innovative new product.
