Video spreads quickly online

A video recorded without consent can be shared and commented on rapidly, making it difficult to control its spread. This is why it is important to act quickly when discovering such content.

Stay calm and gather evidence

The priority is not to react in shock but to slow down the spread of the video, keep a record of its existence, and seek help. This is especially crucial if the video is humiliating, sexualized, threatening, or shared without your consent.

Camera glasses are hard to detect

Camera glasses look like regular glasses, making it harder to tell if someone is filming. Unlike a smartphone held in front of a person, the lens is built into the frame, and the recording light may be barely visible during normal interactions.

Targeted locations and people

Testimonies show that these glasses are often used in public spaces to film young women, shop or restaurant employees, and others in situations where privacy is expected, such as changing rooms, hospitals, schools, and courts.

Risks of sharing the video

The danger increases when the video is uploaded, commented on, and shared again, sometimes becoming viral. This can lead to degrading comments and insults, as noted by experts in the Le Figaro newspaper.

Monetization of harmful content

Some sexist or misogynistic videos can be monetized by their audience, which is why experts advise against sharing the content, even when trying to denounce it.
