EU privacy watchdogs urge clearer recording indicators for camera smart glasses

The European Data Protection Board (EDPB) issued a non-binding recommendation that camera-equipped smart glasses, such as Meta's Ray-Ban models, should have more conspicuous recording indicators. The recommendation is advisory and does not impose legal obligations, but signals growing regulatory scrutiny that could influence future EU rules and market practices. This is a policy signal, not a binding change, and its impact on manufacturers is currently limited.
