Ray-Ban Meta smart glasses put surveillance and consent back in focus

Intelligence Summary

A new Verge column uses a TV plot to highlight real-world privacy problems with smart glasses. It describes how Ray-Ban Meta glasses can capture audio or video while wearing people may not realize they are being recorded. The story also notes how smart glasses integrate with a phone to enable tracking-like behavior. This raises concerns around consent, reasonable expectations of privacy, and workplace or care-home safety. Users and organizations should treat these devices as potentially surveillance-capable and establish clear policies and visible recording indicators.
