A woman boards the subway in Boston. A man across the car starts a conversation with her. It's a common occurrence. But within the hour, she could go viral on Instagram or TikTok, her story told on his terms from clips taken without her consent or knowledge.
This scenario is not some dystopian fiction. Several variations of this incident have occurred across the United States and Europe. The New York subway. An airport lounge in Washington D.C. On the streets of London. All a result of recordings from artificial intelligence-equipped glasses.
