A NEW APP ALERTS YOU IF SOMEONE NEARBY IS WEARING SMART GLASSES

Summary from the TLDR InfoSec newsletter

Nearby Glasses is a new Android app that continuously scans for Bluetooth signals from smart glasses made by Meta and Snap, alerting users when potentially always-recording wearable devices are detected nearby. The app matches manufacturer-specific Bluetooth company identifiers and supports custom IDs for detecting a broader range of surveillance wearables, though it may produce false positives from VR headsets. The tool addresses growing privacy concerns about covert recording devices, particularly following reports that Meta Ray-Ban smart glasses were used in immigration raids and harassment.
