Smart glasses equipped with cameras, microphones, and AI are a creeping privacy and security nightmare, prompting backlash.

And rightfully so.

    I’ve had to inform all my boomer/genx peeps that have one about how they send video footage back even when you aren’t recording. Instances like people just putting the glasses down on their bedside table and some meta contractor ends up seeing your wife get dressed after a shower.

      My beef, what about underage users?? Let’s say a high schooler gets frisky with his gf?? A kid at my kid’s school was bragging about using his glasses for school work, and they were joking about taking a poop, etc then a kid joked about walking into the girls bathroom with them on… Idk man, so many problems with them!!

        One of the police officers was using it when I was in highschool, even in the restrooms I think.
