PrivacyPod #12: Take a Chance on Facebook’s Smart Glasses

Description:

This week we discuss at length Facebook launching “Ray-Ban Stories” – cool-looking sunglasses, but just slightly on the creepy side when it comes to privacy. It was also reported last week that Facebook is able to read your Whatsapp messages, but at closer scrutiny the story isn’t as straight-forward as that. And lastly, in the light of the messages coming from the UK on updating their privacy rules, we would like to ask: privacy colleagues in the UK, are you OK?
