This cruise line banned smart glasses from public areas

The smart glasses market is booming, but travelers sailing with MSC Cruises might want to think twice before bringing a pair onboard.

MSC Cruises is the latest one to ban smart glasses and this may be becoming more and more of a problem for people using them.

Previously in Egypt tourists have reportedly been blocked from going to see the pyramids and some museums there also ban them. Saudi Arabian authorities apparently confiscate them at the airport from arriving passengers. Anyone who needs a prescription needs to consider that they may not be able to use them everywhere.

    Why don’t they put a feature on the glasses where whenever they are recording a red light dot shines and/or blinks so that everyone knows the glasses are recording? There could also be a beep sound played like they do for phone call recording.

      The Meta glasses do have a blinking LED that signifies that recording is active. It’s a white instead of red LED though. It also has a light sensor that is meant to prevent the user from covering the light.
