If this goes through, EVE Valkyrie and the Oculus are dead to me.

Your thoughts?

I just want a device that I can use without having to give away all my personal info and dirty secrets. Anyone who trusts Zuckerberg is a "dumb ****" - his words.

Surely he need more materials to sell to NSA, now they'll be able to see that you see - not just listen to phones and read messages.

So many hopes for this tech, now completely dashed.

Probably will be spammed to death if you try to use it. Will have to go through 10 minutes of ads before getting into game.

Well, there goes my interest in both that, and Valkyrie. I honestly thought you were trolling until I checked up on it.

Goddamn Zuckerburg.

This is very unfortunate. I can live without EVE Valkyrie. However, I wonder more whether this will taint and delay a technology many of us have been waiting for.

On the internet, you can be whatever you want to be. It is amazing that so many people chose to be stupid.

That's just... wrong Ugh

I really looked forward to getting an Oculus not just because of Valkyrie... The mood is killed now... gone.

Sorry, CCP.

We still got Sony's Morpheus for Valkyrie though (even if it needs a PS4).
