The National Post reports in its Wednesday edition that Meta glasses have a small white light to indicate recording, but it's easily defeated. The Post's Mason Kossack writes that men are using these glasses to secretly film women in places like gyms, bathrooms, and change rooms, posting the footage on Instagram and TikTok, where the women are mocked. For these reasons, news outlets such as The Guardian, Wired and Vox, among countless others, have dubbed them "pervert glasses." The glasses look like ordinary sunglasses, and the light is the only warning that a camera is running. Meta says the answer is the light. Meta says the capture LED blinks briefly when a photo is taken and keeps blinking through a video, that it has no off switch and that it is there so everyone around the wearer knows they are recording. Covering it with tape has disabled the camera since the second generation. Meta said on July 7 that it was going further. "We are continuously improving our ability to detect tampering, and now we're updating the glasses to disable the camera if they detect the LED was physically tampered with or destroyed," Meta said. The update is mandatory and covers Ray-Ban Meta, Oakley Meta and Meta's own line.
