    Except that Facebook is spending a lot of it on getting their screen in front of as many eyeballs as they can.

    Watching the Zuck salivate at the advertising implications of the pseudo mind reading capabilities that gaze tracking might bring is creepy as fuck.

      Getting their screen in front and collecting all the data they possibly can reach

      I thought of getting a jailbroken Quest only to find that this is no longer possible to be done, so no Quest for me then

        It’s so frustrating that some of the best RnD is locked behind a subsidized purchase pushed by a company that ethically just… doesn’t pass. And no amount of money can get you that tech without all the strings attached.

        They’d rather leak money like a siv than lose out on data-mining your eyeballs.
