Hopefully they sell off quest so we can maybe get a company not so dead set on invading privacy in the VR market. I swore off Facebook in 2007 due to privacy concerns, and it is unfortunate that they purchased Oculus in 2014 and became the leader in the space. This literally happened just as I had come into a position where I actually had disposable income and was interested in VR.
Facebook is both anti-privacy and also doesn’t believe in much moderation, both of which make VR dangerous if an entire family uses it. I don’t believe VR should be something only adults can use, but there needs to be some really good moderation. Otherwise it would just be overrun by sexual predators and edgelords.

That’s a good point! There are already issues with their “a.i.” implementation, including violations of contracts with celebrities.
