New York City’s Basement nightclub unveiled a strict no-photo/no-video policy that includes a permanent ban on anyone wearing or carrying smart glasses, citing privacy and safety on the dance floor and signaling distrust of wearable recording devices in nightlife spaces.
The Ministry of Education in South Korea has distributed a new teachers' manual that prohibits parents from using recording devices to record lessons without the teacher's permission. The move aims to prevent parents from eavesdropping on classrooms and confronting teachers based on audio recordings. The manual also includes guidelines on classroom policies, such as dealing with disruptive students, restricting the use of electronic gadgets, and conducting parent-teacher meetings within working hours. It also provides instructions on the use of force to restrain disruptive students and allows teachers to search a student's bag if they are reported for smoking on school grounds. The ministry plans to provide support to schools based on their needs to implement the new guidelines effectively.
