Norway seeks temporary ban on smart glasses as privacy concerns rise
Norway seeks temporary ban on smart glasses amid rising privacy concerns, proposing a temporary ban in certain areas to address the promise and peril of AI glasses. The Norwegian government aims to enact this proposed ban in parliament, the Storting, as soon as possible. Key concerns revolve around spaces where privacy is crucial, such as healthcare facilities, fitness centers, schools, playgrounds, and public events.
However, exemptions may be granted for socially beneficial uses of smart glasses in specific circumstances.
