Wasn't that the exact reason many developers cancelled Oculus Rift support unless Facebook severed ties with Palmer Luckey?

- tptacek 10y agoI wasn't aware that there was a boycott of Oculus over Palmer Luckey, but man, that's heartening to hear. I have to admit that I would not have picked "political integrity" over "access to VR toys" in that particular sparring match. Good for those developers! Boycotts are a form of speech. The right to criticize is inalienable.
