Smart glasses are deeply creepy. Why are celebrities like Kylie Jenner endorsing them?
TL;DR
Meta touts safety features – but for women, the dangers of these recording devices are obvious Imagine if every time you left the house, you couldn’t be sure that the stranger you met at a bar – or even the person walking by you in the street – wasn’t secretly recording you. It sounds like something out of a Black Mirror episode, but let’s face it, the era of wearable technology is fully upon us as everyday accessories have been developed to help track health and fitness data, receive smartphone notifications, and provide hands-free accessibility.
Nauti's Take
For teams, this is first a control question: can bystanders clearly tell when the device is capturing, storing, or sending data to cloud services? The source here is a single commentary piece with a strong point of view, so it is not solid market evidence.
Before testing anything, verify privacy behavior, recording visibility, and whether default features can actually be disabled.
