Two US senators have written to Meta demanding to know how its smart glasses prevent nonconsensual intimate recording, and whether that footage is used to train AI.
Oregon Senator Ron Wyden and Massachusetts Senator Edward Markey have sent Meta a letter asking a blunt question: does its smart glasses have any safeguard at all against someone recording intimate moments without consent?
The sharpest line is about AI training. The people filmed never agreed, yet the footage may be retained, shown to human reviewers and fed into models. Earlier reporting found men in Ray-Ban glasses walking into massage parlours, filming, and posting the videos to accounts with hundreds of thousands of followers; the people in them often did not know they were on camera.
The marketing runs on A-list celebrities. The reply now comes as a Senate letter. That is quite a journey for one product line.
