  1. Meta-RayBan: Kein Platz für Spanner-Brillen
    Smarte Brille haben sicher auch seriöse Einsatzzwecke – wie bisher auch schon. Aber Meta ist kein seriöses Unternehmen. Wie so oft ist nicht die Technologie das Problem, sondern das Geschäftsmodell.

  2. A week after I wrote about my unease around smart glasses, the debate has moved fast.

    A German digital-rights group has now filed a complaint over Meta’s AI glasses, arguing people can be filmed without noticing (👉 reuters.com/legal/government/g).

    A visible recording light tells me recording is happening. It still does not answer whether the people around it consented.

  3. «Smart Glasses in der Badi - Politikerinnen wollen smarte Brillen verbieten:
    Intelligente Brillen können filmen und fotografieren. Nun wächst die Sorge um die Privatsphäre. Gerade rund um die Badi.»

    Die @rahel_estermann erklärt mal klar und deutlich im SRF (Schweizer Fernsehen) weshalb Smart Glasses alles andere als Smart sind.

  5. La semaine passée, qoqa a proposé des smart glasses IA, et ils se sont faits rétamer la gueule dans les commentaires, c’était magnifique. 😍

    Et leur service de com de s’efforcer d’arrondir les angles en se félicitant de susciter le débat, ça c’était pathétique. 🤮

  6. #Metaglasses, with their built-in #recording capabilities, are causing concern in #workplaces, particularly for #service and #retail workers. Customers are using these glasses to record #employees, often for #socialmedia content, leading to uncomfortable and potentially exploitative situations. The lack of clear laws and policies around smart glasses in the workplace leaves employees vulnerable and raises privacy concerns. theverge.com/report/982414/met #ARglasses #SmartGlasses #AugmentedReality #AR

  7. Apple Cuts 200+ Jobs Across Vision Pro and Siri Teams

    Apple lays off more than 200 employees across its Vision Pro, Siri, and immersive video teams, largely shutting down its Vision Pro gaming division as the company pivots toward smart glasses.

  8. "Para o presidente da D3 - Defesa dos Direitos Digitais, Ricardo Lafuente, “este é um caso emblemático de como as pessoas ainda não têm consciência quanto ao uso destas ferramentas”, explica ao DN/DV. “Neste caso, não sabiam [os funcionários] que estavam a ceder profundamente a sua competência profissional. E, no mesmo sentido, também o cliente que lá deixou os óculos não tem qualquer garantia de qual é que foi a informação sobre a vida dele que lhes ficou acessível enquanto faziam este trabalho”, avisa.

    As questões de privacidade que envolvem os óculos inteligentes têm-se multiplicado internacionalmente, ao passo que também aumentam as denúncias sobre gravações sem consentimento que se tornam virais na internet.

    Não há, na Europa, uma regulamentação específica para a sua utilização, mas alguns países já começam a adotar medidas para barrar a circulação destes spy glasses, ou óculos espiões, como certos media, como o jornal The Guardian, os têm adjetivado. Tribunais em Inglaterra e no País de Gales proibiram os Meta AI nas suas instalações, na última semana. Antes, já restaurantes, pubs e teatros britânicos tinham anunciado um veto aos óculos. Em Potsdam, na Alemanha, foram proibidos em piscinas e saunas, com outras cidades a ponderar medidas semelhantes.

    Apesar de todas as polémicas, a Meta anunciou ter vendido sete milhões de pares dos óculos AI feitos em parceria com a Ray-Ban em 2025, número que tem vindo a crescer desde o lançamento da primeira versão, em 2021."

  9. AirPods With Cameras Held Until 2027

    https://twitter.com/aaronp613/status/2089522745184760112 This video extracted from Apple's software showcases what appears to be an official demonstration of the company's vision for its camera-equipped AirPods. Clearly, these devices serve as a medium for computer vision, or what Apple refers to as 'visual intelligence,' allowing them to perceive their environment and utilize AI for interpretation. Unsurprisingly, with this focus on computer vision, AirPods featuring cameras are being […]

  10. "Smart-glasses detector apps aren’t perfect. At best, they can alert users when nearby glasses are turned on by detecting the Bluetooth signal used to pair the glasses with a phone. Most importantly, the apps cannot determine whether the glasses are actively recording, and users are cautioned to never assume that someone wearing smart glasses is recording them. App makers also advise against confrontation and accept no liability for false positives or misunderstandings. Additionally, detection may be unreliable if a wall or other obstacle, like a human body, interferes with a signal.

    Users don’t seem to consider these flaws deal-breakers. They simply want some way to scan a room, and some are eager to provide feedback to improve the apps, even expressing an emotional investment in seeing the technology develop.

    One of the first apps, Nearby Glasses, is available for $2.99 on both iOS and Android. It has been downloaded more than 100,000 times from the Play Store and remains the most popular such app, despite the developer, Yves Jeanrenaud, warning on GitHub that he’s “no pro developer” and that “detecting Bluetooth LE devices might sometimes just not work as expected,” and “false positives are likely.”

    Released in response to online content showing that smart glasses are “an intolerable intrusion, consent neglecting, horrible piece of tech,” Jeanrenaud said, he kept his goals humble. On GitHub, he wrote, “I hope this app is useful for someone,” but “I do not want to promote techsolutionism, nor do I want people to feel falsely secure. It’s still an imperfect approach,” and it probably “always will be.”"

  11. PetaPixel: Meta Can’t Stop the Avalanche of Content Filmed on Pervert Glasses. “After Mosseri personally delivered the news in July, Meta announced that two large pickup artist accounts — pickup artists refer to men who approach women on the street to try and get their contact details — were pulled from Instagram. However, an investigation by Business Insider found that not only was one […]

  12. "AntiZuck [😂] is a privacy-focused mobile app designed to scan for and alert users to nearby Bluetooth signals emitted by smart glasses, such as Meta Ray-Bans, Snap Spectacles, and Amazon Echo Frames. You can download it on iOS via the Antizuck Smart Glasses Scanner App." It has at the mo 4.8 stars from 67 reviews.

    Question is, where's the Android version?

    Die Gefahr durch Smart Glasses ist real – aber sie betrifft alle Menschen, unabhängig vom Geschlecht. Heimliches Filmen, digitale Ausspähung und Missbrauch dieser Technologie kennen keine Geschlechtergrenzen. Auch Männer, Kinder und ältere Menschen werden Opfer von versteckten Kameras und Übergriffigkeit. .../2

  14. Post ironico: ho letto diversi articoli sugli occhiali smart. Pro/contro e su come i giovani li stanno usando. La colpa è sempre di come utilizziamo una tecnologia: un coltello può essere usato per tagliare, modellare la legna, accendere un fuoco, ma anche per ledere una persona. Ma analisi tecniche a parte ho trovato questo piccolo jammer utilizzabile per disturbare le frequenze fino al 5G, WiFi e bluetooth. Che ne pensate? Posso usarlo per non farmi riprendere? 🤣

  15. Cinemas, schools and ICE are all banning #Meta #smartglasses - thenextweb.com/news/meta-smart "UK cinemas are restricting Meta smart glasses over film piracy, days after US schools and ICE barred them for entirely different reasons. None of these institutions coordinated. What they share is an inability to tell whether the person in front of them is recording."
