A glass darkly: Electronic Frontiers Australia calls for ban on best-selling Kmart smart glasses

Matched: Australia

Electronic Frontiers Australia is calling for a ban on smart glasses sold at Kmart, warning the devices pose serious privacy risks. Similar to Meta's Ray-Ban glasses, the products can discreetly record video and audio, raising concerns about covert surveillance, harassment, and facial recognition misuse. The digital rights group argues existing Australian privacy laws are insufficient to address the threat the glasses' growing popularity presents.
