The one thing which I thought might save Facebook's VR project was that John Carmack was still working for them.

While he was still there, it felt like maybe they were going to have some kind of ethical backbone, maybe they could produce the goods at a sane price without too much unethical bollocks.

He's quit now though.

And their new headset is five times the price of the old one, with more scanning and less privacy, more spying.

Hey ho.

Someone else will make a good one sometime.
