An investigation has revealed that Meta's Ray-Ban AI Glasses are collecting intimate and unanonymized user footage, which is then reviewed by subcontracted data annotators in Nairobi. Users are reportedly unaware that the glasses continue to record even when not being worn.

• Kenyan workers employed by Sama, a subcontractor for Meta, are manually reviewing footage that includes private moments like bathroom visits and undressing.
• Users are allegedly misled by salespeople about data privacy, with claims that data stays local when it is, in fact, processed by Meta's servers.
• This hidden human review process is crucial for training the AI, as automated anonymization tools frequently fail, exposing sensitive user data.
