It's not about privacy really.
They can stop you using a piece of hardware you purchased. With no warning. With no repercussions. And essentially no way to appeal.
Would I be okay if Sony could remote disable my PlayStation? Obviously not. So why is it acceptable with VR hardware?
It's not 'good value' if you can be blocked from using it.
- BoorishBears 5y agoLol uh... Sony can. In the same way FB can. Break TOS => Cancel account => Gimped hardware. And if you think I'm exaggerating, just try setting up a Playstation without a PS account and signing their TOS. It's ironic that the Quest gets this laser focus when it's only doing exactly what every other console is doing...
- breakfastduck 5y agoIt is not doing the same thing at all. I can use a PS4/5 totally offline if I want to. Occulus does not work without a facebook account signed in full stop. Not comparable.
