Norway plans temporary ban on smart glasses in public places
Original: Norway plans temporary ban on smart glasses in some public places
Norway is preparing a temporary ban on smart glasses in certain public spaces, amid concern that camera-enabled models such as Meta's spectacles can be used for covert recording. Similar restrictions already exist in the UK and US. The move reflects growing European unease over wearable cameras and privacy in everyday settings.
Why now: Privacy fears over camera-equipped smart glasses are prompting new regulation and debate across Europe.
