US police tighten security over smartglasses vulnerability concerns

U.S. police and federal agencies are tightening security over Meta smartglasses with built-in cameras, citing new risks at detention and police facilities. The New York Police Department\'s counterterrorism bureau flagged Ray-Ban Meta smartglasses as a security and counterintelligence threat and ordered stricter screening of glasses entering inmate cells. A TikTok video filmed inside a South Carolina detention facility has also been cited. Warnings have spread to DHS teams and fusion centers, while ICE has banned wearing smartglasses in federal workspaces.
