I would be stressed out by talking to some dude recording me, too.
It's creepy.  Two things.  

One: she's now classifying herself as a
victim of "hate crime," for what that's worth - a stretch of the
original definition, perhaps, but maybe valid.  

Two - can't remember what you would look for on Youtube to find it, but
there's some awesome videos made by a Canadian (I think?) student who
just walks into classrooms with a video recorder running and starts
filming people.  Everyone gets upset with him and he usually gets
politely but forcefully ejected from the classrooms by angry
professors.  That's the point after all - people don't like having
their privacy violated by people who feel they are entitled to record
other people without their permission.

Unlike that awesome movie 'Strange Days' (I just re-watched it this
weekend after someone on Comp.misc reminding me of the name), I'd bet
there's a lot of Google Glass video out there that ends with an image
of a swinging fist.  Soon it will be a baseball bat ...
