This bill establishes specific requirements for manufacturers and retail sellers of wearable recording devices in New Jersey. A "wearable recording device" is defined as a device that can be worn on the body and is capable of capturing sound or video, excluding body-worn cameras used by law enforcement. The bill mandates that such devices must include a visual indicator that activates when recording, remains visible throughout the recording, and cannot be disabled or obscured. Additionally, it prohibits the sale of any technology designed to disable or circumvent this visual indicator.

Furthermore, the bill requires sellers to provide purchasers with instructions on the proper operation of the device and the visual indicator requirements at the time of sale. These instructions can be delivered through in-person demonstrations, video tutorials, or other approved methods. Violations of the bill's provisions are classified as unlawful practices under the consumer fraud act, which can result in significant monetary penalties and other legal consequences. The bill also clarifies that it does not alter existing laws regarding body-worn cameras used by law enforcement.
