Brisbane bans smart glasses at public pools

Brisbane City Council has implemented a blanket ban on recording devices filming anyone without consent at its public pools, amid growing concerns over children being recorded with smart glasses. The federal Attorney-General has written to the Privacy Commissioner to ensure smart glasses comply with Australian privacy laws, which regulate whether recordings are done with knowledge, how footage is used, and how sensitive information is stored. The Privacy Commissioner has the authority to impose penalties including fines or bans on devices that don't adhere to existing privacy frameworks.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
