Code reviewed by WIRED uncovered an unreleased face-recognition system embedded in Meta’s smart glasses platform. It’s designed to identify people via biometric data stored on users’ phones.
if you’re looking to evade passive facial detection by smart glasses, a facial covering like a surgical mask is probably the lowest profile solution, followed by those bulky IR-proof glasses like what Reflectacles sells. maybe a combination of both but at some point it becomes conspicuous to have your face covered so fully all the time, not to mention impractical for socialization.
If someone were to take a picture of me without flash, the scarf would lose their effect. I believe the glasses won’t use flash.

Plus I also have to wear actual glasses, and I’d have to use either the IR glasses either my glasses.
