So sales of the Oculus rift have already been banned in Germany due to requiring a Facebook account.
Does this move mean that Minecraft will also be banned in Germany?
I wonder if there will be other legal challenges from other places (mainly looking towards the EU). When I bought Minecraft in 2013 I never agreed to making a Microsoft account. I really hope some organization with a big stick stops moves like these.
- mtmail 6y agoNot banned. Facebook hasn't released Oculus 2 in Germany and paused the sale of Oculus 1 due to "ongoing talks with government agencies". The relevant (it's per state, so Hamburg) data protection agency says there are no ongoing talks and the competition authority (I hope that's the correct translation) denied there are talks, too. So technically Facebook voluntarily doesn't sell them. https://www.heise.de/news/VR-Headsets-von-Oculus-werden-nicht-mehr-in-Deutschland-verkauft-4883905.html https://www.heise.de/news/VR-Headsets-von-Oculus-werden-nich...
