WA schools ban smart glasses over privacy fears
Published 2 weeks, 4 days ago
Description
Western Australian state schools will ban smart glasses from classrooms starting next term due to privacy and security concerns. The wearable technology, which includes hidden cameras and speakers, has tripled in usage over the past year with affordable models now available at retailers like Kmart for under $100. The ban applies to students, parents and teachers, with concerns about unauthorised recording of teachers and potential misuse of the built-in audio features during classes.
