Apple, the company that built a fortress around your data while selling you a $1,000 phone, is reportedly planning to release its first smart glasses at WWDC next June, with a launch expected by the end of 2027. The delay? They're busy figuring out how to make the glasses not seem like a privacy nightmare, which is tricky when your main competitor, Meta, has basically turned theirs into a surveillance fashion accessory.

According to Mark Gurman, Apple is leaning hard into on-device processing and will likely skip features like facial recognition or always-on recording - you know, the stuff that makes Meta's glasses a hit with stalkers and a concern for everyone else. Apple also reportedly won't use customer recordings to train AI models, because apparently they believe in consent. The company might even release a camera-less version, or one with a camera that can only sense things, not capture your embarrassing moments. Because nothing says "privacy first" like a product that literally cannot see you.
