A world where everyone blurts out whatever is in their head free from any consequence isn't as I understand it the desirable end goal of the right to freedom of expression. Moreover that sort of view on it is profoundly anti-human sinc

They think it's an emerging technology and want to be at the forefront? Hence building the Vive with HTC and working on their tracking technology. Gabe Newell has been waxing lyrical about their VR plans just this week. They are curren
