A small LED light is all that stands between you and being secretly filmed by Meta's Ray-Ban smart glasses. That light can be disabled with a cheap hack. Someone was charging $60 to do it with a growing list of customers. In this episode of Humans and AI, we look at how surveillance didn't invade private space, we carried it there ourselves. And now we're wearing it on our faces. From workers in Nairobi reviewing intimate footage of people in their own bedrooms, to Meta's plans to add facial recognition timed for a moment of political distraction. This is the story of how your home became a data point. This isn't just about one product. It's about how we got here. CCTV, smartphones, biometric data, heat maps. And where this ends.
