Smart glasses are raising concerns over covert recording – with Norway considering a ban #meta

However, the UK has no blanket ban on wearing them in public — though restrictions apply in places like courts and some cinemas.

While most pairs feature a light to warn when covert recording is taking place, it’s not always obvious.

A spokesperson for Meta told us: "Every pair with a camera has a bright light on the front that blinks when you take a photo or video. It cannot be turned off and the camera is disabled if someone covers or tampers with it.”
