Hack

Have camera glasses officially entered the mainstream? A Kmart dupe of the Meta glasses sold out across Australia this week, and they’ve been dubbed "pervert glasses" because they allow wearers to discreetly record videos and take photos. 
So, will we see more instances of people being unknowingly recorded in public? And if we know there's significant potential for misuse of this tech, who's responsible? The company selling or the consumer recording?
In this week's deep dive, hear from an expert about the harms of this surveillance tech and whether our privacy laws need to step up.

"Yasmin" could be any other young Australian, trying to build a life in her twenties.
She finished high school here, has a bunch of Australian friends and family and pays taxes.
But "Yasmin" has been told she can never be Australian because she arrived on a people smuggling boat as a child.
She is one of hundreds in Australia who have been in limbo for more than a decade with no permanent protection.
In this chat with Dave, "Yasmin" opens up about what it was like growing up in immigration detention on the island of Nauru, living with the fear of being deported and her pleas to the Australian government to let her stay.
