SMART GLASSES

China police using smart glasses with facial recognition cameras

Smart glasses with built-in cameras and facial recognition software, which can match a stranger's face to a database in seconds, are now being used by police in China. No warrant, no consent, no warning. The person walking past an officer has no idea their face was just scanned and matched. Consumer tech companies spent years making this hardware small, cheap, and normal-looking, and law enforcement figured out the obvious next step.
