The Air Force is banning troops from wearing smart eyewear like Meta AI glasses. Other services allow commanders to dictate device policies.

    Unsanctioned photography is already prohibited.

      yeah, this seems like a logical and contemporaneous “update” to that sort of policy.

      I’d imagine they were effectively banned, but not explicitly banned.

      Reminds me of soldiers giving away secret base locations through Strava and dating apps.

    Guarantee that the base leaders ban them already. This was the blanket ban for the rest of the bases.
