After the current NSA scandal, is there any chance for wide adoption of a wearable mass spying device ?

Yes. Just ensure that the glasses always show an LED when recording, one that can't be controlled by software drivers.

You can easily pick out the recording LED on camera equipment from 30m so that's not really an issue. The bigger problem is simply not noticing once glass becomes even slightly popular.
