Meta sparks privacy fears after unveiling $299 Smart Glasses with hidden cameras: ‘You can now film everyone without them knowing’::These stylish shades may look like a regular pair of Ray-Ban Wayfarers, but they’re actually Meta’s new Smart Glasses, complete with two tiny cameras and speakers implanted in the arms. The wearable tech was unveiled by Mark Zuckerberg Wednesday at the 2023 Meta Connect conference in Menlo Park, California, sparking a frenzy online.
They don’t really look “hidden” tbqh, the lenses are quite obvious.
I’m wondering if these could be useful to me as a prosopagnostic.
Try standing 10 ft / 3m away, in a crowd, and not actually expecting anybody to have them. Would you notice?
I guess, but by that standard having a mobile phone in a shirt pocket is also hidden.
Yes, yes it is. The glasses makes it just a tiny bit easier to covertly record stuff.
Well now we’re already expecting people to have them, so yeah I think people will notice.
