Dutch shops pull Meta camera glasses over privacy fears
Business Insider· 2 OctHans Anders, a large Dutch eyewear chain, and the online retailer Wehkamp have paused sales of Meta's camera glasses after a newspaper reported people, mostly women, being filmed in public without knowing. The Dutch Data Protection Authority says it is looking at further measures against camera glasses, and a consumer group has asked the government for a ban. Meta points to the recording light on every pair.
- Decide your house rule on camera glasses for staff and visitors, the same way you already treat phones in changing rooms, treatment rooms or the till area, and put it on a sign.
- If you sell glasses or gadgets, check what your supplier and your insurer say about selling camera wearables before the rules change.
