It's a neat solution to the multi-device problem (i.e. When I serve an ad to this device, is this a new user or the same one?)
Also, I get the view that Oculus is just a video game console -- but I don't think that's how Zuck views it
My impression is that he thinks Oculus/VR will eventually surpass 2d interfaces. So, if they can get away with linking all of their ad targeting information now, in the early stages, then it won't seem weird if they do it later.
To be fair to FB, this is exactly what they're doing with integrating IG and FB messaging. It's just that no one is really complaining about that.
Doing this in the middle of an anti-trust investigation seems ... bold, but it is consistent with their financial incentives.
- EricMausler 6y agoZuck is making a losing bet. He is out of touch. People still do not enjoy wearing regular prescription glasses that vastly improve VISION. Something that dominates human experience for most people. I am really not convinced people will be willing to put anything on their face for extra (en masse). Not unless its no more than existing glasses, and you don't look dumb in it. I am not sure this is a technical feat achievable in zucks lifetime
