Meta’s glasses will turn off the camera if you tamper with the privacy light

Meta is rolling out a new update for its second-generation smart glasses to address public backlash regarding privacy. The feature will automatically disable the camera capture system if the device detects that the privacy LED light has been covered, destroyed, or physically tampered with. This measure specifically targets modders who have attempted to bypass the indicator by drilling into the hardware, ensuring the camera cannot operate without the visible privacy light active.
