Why smart glasses should be banned at work

Meta has launched Ray-Ban Meta glasses that can film, listen, record, and geolocate, raising concerns about privacy and data rights. Weighing 52 grams, these glasses serve as an audiovisual production tool integrated with AI, aimed at creating content for social media. Unlike traditional eyewear, they focus on intrusive functionalities rather than vision correction. The widespread acceptance of such technology contrasts sharply with the backlash faced by Google Glass in 2013, prompting questions about fundamental rights violations, including privacy and data protection. Although a light indicates when the glasses are active, it can be easily disabled, further complicating privacy issues.
