Meta's planned integration of facial recognition technology into smart glasses has prompted a coalition of 75 organizations to issue a warning, labeling it a “serious threat to privacy.” The coalition urges Meta to abandon the facial recognition initiative due to concerns over privacy implications.

Meta subcontractor employees in Kenya reportedly viewed footage captured by Ray-Ban Meta smart glasses, including sensitive content of individuals using the bathroom. This incident has raised concerns about user privacy and the handling of data by Meta and its partners.
