This piece reports on a proof-of-concept where students used Ray-Ban Meta smart glasses and AI facial recognition to identify people within seconds by pulling data from public databases, illustrating escalating privacy risks and potential for misuse. It references similar technologies and services (e.g., Clearview AI, PimEyes) and offers guidance on opting out of people-search and face-search engines to reduce exposure, but it does not document a specific cyber incident or technical vulnerability.
