Across all platforms, probably over 200,000 views,&#8221; Toluwa Omitowoju said.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>It&#8217;s a growing trend with content creators increasingly using wearable AI tech to record everyday people in prank pickup line videos \u2013 often without their consent.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Omitowoju was shocked and displeased to see herself in one such video, which has since been taken down.<strong> <\/strong>She had no idea she was being filmed, nor was she asked before the video was posted.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;I had no say,&#8221; Omitowoju said, adding that other women have shared similar experiences with her.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;It was a lot worse. It was to the point where they don&#8217;t even know who filmed them and yet it&#8217;s being posted online under a burner account,&#8221; she said.<\/p>\n<p>Adam Mosseri, the head of Meta-owned social media giant Instagram, said the platform is cracking down on videos that harass people or invade their privacy.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;If you&#8217;re posting content that is taking advantage of people and harassing them, like a lot of these pickup line kind of videos that we&#8217;ve heard of and seen recently, then we&#8217;re going to take the content down,&#8221; he said in July. &#8220;We don&#8217;t want people to be surreptitiously taking videos of other people and harassing them and then posting them on our platform.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Meta has come under fire for privacy concerns before.<\/p>\n<p>In May, Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton <a href=\"https:\/\/www.cbsnews.com\/texas\/news\/meta-glasses-texas-investigation-5-20-2026\/\" data-invalid-url-rewritten-http=\"\">launched an investigation<\/a> into Ray-Ban Meta glasses, alleging that the glasses could violate personal privacy by using cameras, speakers and more to covertly film people, including in private moments such as bathroom visits.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Privacy and data protection are core to every product we build at Meta, including Ray-Ban Meta glasses,&#8221; Meta said in a statement at the time.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Meta told CBS News that its glasses have built-in privacy and safety features, including a telltale LED light that turns on when the glasses are recording and software that is supposed to prevent recording if the light is covered or disabled.<\/p>\n<p>CBS News&#8217; Anna Schecter put this feature to the test. She found the disabling mechanism did not appear to work when she covered the light after already starting to record.<\/p>\n<p>A Meta spokesperson told CBS News the tamper detection is designed to prevent recording if the light is covered before pressing record.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;If the glasses detect that the capture LED is covered or obstructed, they will disable capture and prompt the wearer to clear the obstruction,&#8221; the company said in a statement to CBS News.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Meta added it continues to &#8220;work to improve this technology.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Another privacy complication is that most states only require the consent of one person to record an interaction, which means only the person recording has to know.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Omitowoju said she believes that wearable technology is a huge threat to personal privacy.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;If someone sees a phone in front of their face, they have the opportunity to step away, to approach someone and say, &#8216;Hey, I don&#8217;t want you to record.&#8217; With these smart glasses and the smart technology, you&#8217;re taking away the right of refusal,&#8221; she said.<\/p>\n<section
