A killer app indeed; it'd kill AR. At least I like to think we aren't so far gone that as a society we can't see how wrong that would be.

It's also likely inevitable. Every time you tag someone in a Facebook photo you are helping this happen.
I don't think most people will object. Here are some excuses that you can pick from to feel better about our dys... world.
"It only works when someone is near me, and I'd have more things to worry about if someone wished harm on me and was sitting next to me."
"Well privacy is dead anyway, and I get to play candy crush with friends for free! Personal data is worthless anyway."
"Even if they can change who I am given enough personal data, who cares? I'm already shaped by the people around me, what's wrong with adding companies to the mix?"
"China is doing it, and China is ahead of us in everything. We must copy them."
(These are all more or less from actual discussions I've had about privacy.) Take your pick.
If so, that train has largely sailed. Same advice as before holds: curate your social media presence and have the guts to turn down contacts that you don't want.
Obviously this would be a corporate wet dream if both movements continue.
