Creeps and wannabe pickup artists are reportedly using Meta’s “smart glasses” to record their come-ons to unsuspecting women and post the videos online — and privacy advocates warn the situation could get catastrophically worse if the glasses were equipped with facial recognition. A growing number of aspiring influencers are using the smart glasses to turn real-life encounters into content — prowling nightlife strips, shopping centers and city streets to film their unsolicited approaches to women, Wired reported. The videos follow a familiar script — a compliment, a pickup line, a push for a name or number — with the footage later blasted across TikTok and Instagram for views, often without the subject ever realizing she was on camera.
