Delhi Man Sends Legal Notice to Meta Over Secret Recording with Smart Glasses
A Delhi man sent a legal notice to Meta and an Instagram creator after being secretly recorded with Ray-Ban Meta smart glasses at a cafe. The video was posted on Instagram and viewed over 400,000 times, sparking privacy concerns. The notice challenges Meta over the glasses' design, which resembles regular spectacles and may enable covert recording. Meta states the glasses have a recording indicator light, but critics argue it is insufficient. Apps like Zuckoff have emerged to detect nearby smart glasses, reflecting growing public unease about privacy risks.
