Senators Demand Meta Explain Smart‑Glass Use

Oregon Senator Ron Wyden and Massachusetts Senator Edward Markey have asked Meta to disclose whether it performed human‑rights due diligence, safety testing, and privacy‑risk evaluations for its smart glasses, and to explain safeguards and data‑retention policies before a near‑term deadline. They specifically flagged the company's retained imagery used for AI training and reported sightings of the glasses in law‑enforcement operations. — Congressional scrutiny of wearable AI’s training‑data practices and law‑enforcement adoption could set precedent for transparency requirements, limits on retention, and regulation of body‑worn visual AI.
