報道で発覚を受け、MetaがAIアプリから顔認識コードを削除
Wiredが5,000万人超のユーザーにその存在を報じた後、Metaはスマートグラスアプリからnametag顔認識システムを削除した。プライバシーと監視能力への懸念が高まっている。
meta stripped the 'nametag' face-recognition system from its smart glasses companion app just one day after wired revealed the code was present on over 50 million devices. the code allowed glasses to capture faceprints and store images of unrecognized faces locally for future processing, though meta had publicly denied the feature existed. this swift deletion highlights the reputational risk companies face when integrating surveillance-ready biometrics into consumer hardware without public disclosure. meta declined to explain why the code was removed or if the feature will return in a future update.
