Australia and Norway weigh smart glasses limits as courts ban them
What happened
Privacy concerns over what smart glasses can see and hear have led courts in several countries to impose bans. An October 5 report says Australia is considering banning smart glasses in some public places, while Norway's government has made proposed restrictions a high priority and says it will send a draft law to parliament soon. Norway does not back a blanket ban, arguing the glasses can be used where there is no risk of filming people without consent. Meta, Google and OpenAI still see wearables as a main AI entry point.
