两名民主党参议员正在调查 Meta 智能眼镜可能带来的隐私和安全风险，此前关于该设备被用于非自愿录制以及收集数据训练 AI 系统的担忧日益加剧。
A pair of Senate Democrats are looking into potential privacy and safety risks associated with Meta’s smart glasses amid rising concerns about the devices’ usage for non-consensual recordings and data collection that trains AI systems.
在周三致 Meta 首席执行官马克·扎克伯格的信中，参议员罗恩·怀登（民主党-俄勒冈州）和爱德华·马基（民主党-马萨诸塞州）要求这家科技公司提供 Meta 对该设备进行的测试和风险评估的答案和文件，以及眼镜收集的数据如何被使用的详细信息。
In a letter dated Wednesday and addressed to Meta CEO Mark Zuckerberg, Sens. Ron Wyden (D-Ore.) and Edward Markey (D-Mass.) requested the tech company provide answers and documents regarding testing and risk assessments Meta conducted on the devices, as well as details on how data collected by the glasses is used.
信中指出：“如果 Meta 无法证明已采取切实措施防止其自身产品和做法助长这些危害，那么 Meta 所谓对隐私保护和防止亲密影像滥用的承诺就是空洞的。”
“Meta’s professed commitment to privacy and preventing intimate image abuse rings hollow if the company cannot demonstrate meaningful steps to prevent its own products and practices from facilitating those harms,” the letter states.
近年来 Meta 面临大量诉讼，指控称该眼镜在未经同意的情况下捕捉敏感图像——从性亲密行为到儿童洗澡。其他诉讼指控 Meta 利用眼镜收集的生物特征数据，包括上述私密图像，来训练其 AI 模型或构建面部识别技术。
Meta has faced a slew of litigation in recent years, with allegationsclaiming the glasses capture sensitive images — from sexual intimacy to children bathing — without consent. Other lawsuits accuse Meta of using the devices’ biometric data, including said private imagery, to train its AI models or build facial recognition technology.
参议员们要求 Meta 通过提供其关于该技术的内部人权分析、说明已识别的隐私风险和已实施的保障措施、以及如何处理和使用数据进行 AI 训练等方式作出回应。Meta 未立即回应置评请求。
The senators are requesting Meta respond by providing its internal human rights analysis on the tech, explaining the privacy risks it has identified and the safeguards it has implemented, and how it processes and uses the data for AI training, among other questions. Meta didn’t immediately respond to request for comment.
