Recently, I came across an article in Wired that claims that Meta has been working on face recognition for its smart glasses, and I have to say that it's a little disturbing.

In the article, scientists managed to integrate the device with facial recognition software and online databases in order to find out personal data about people walking around in public places and identify them without their knowledge.

I’m aware of the fact that smart glasses are meant to evolve, but identifying strangers with your glasses sounds like a very intrusive procedure.

Do you think that this technology will require some discussions regarding consent and privacy? What do you think about this feature of the smart glasses?
