Google Glass could be hack

Google Glass is good for everyone no doubt, but the device lacks so many things that could make hackers to gain access to the device and renders it ''useless''.
An early adopter of Glass Jay Freeman said he found a security flaw in the device which could give hackers access to the current version of Glass. According to him, hackers could gain access to the device by using a known ''vulnerability'' in Google Android software. As such, he could monitor every moves the user makes.
 He went further to say that the device lacks PIN code to lock it from hackers. If, for instance, a user of Glass leaves the device for several minutes or hours,an hacker could physically install malware on the device, thereby granting access to see the user password.
However, he said there is less risk since it would be difficult for any Glass user to leave the device for such a long time before the hacker could carry out his misdeeds.
