EU Regulator Calls for Clear Recording Warnings on Smart Glasses
The European Data Protection Board (EDPB) has issued non-binding guidance urging smart glasses manufacturers and users to provide clear warnings when recording, such as bright LED lights or audio signals. This follows concerns over privacy risks, especially regarding covert recordings of individuals, including vulnerable groups like children, in sensitive locations like schools and hospitals. The EDPB emphasized adherence to EU data protection rules when sharing content publicly or professionally, highlighting the need for reliable, visible recording indicators.
