Google Glass privacy concerns raised by international data protection authorities

The Canadian privacy commissioner and 36 other data protection authorities on Tuesday raised privacy concerns about Google Glass in an open letter to CEO Larry Page.

Jennifer Stoddart, Canada’s privacy commissioner, signed the letter. Co-signers include Europe’s privacy watchdog the Article 29 Working Party and as well as the privacy commissioners of New Zealand and Australia and their counterparts in Mexico, Israel, and Switzerland, among others.

“We are writing to you as data protection authorities to raise questions from a privacy perspective about the development of Google Glass,” the authorities wrote.

One of their main concerns with Google Glass is that people can use the frames to film and record others, the letter said.
