Wow, these news caught me off-guard. Never would've expected THAT from Meta... Gosh...

I know right? It's incredible they weren't collecting it already.

My sentiments exactly. That was not worth a post, and whoever did post should find helpful practical information and stop complaining on the internet.

Ever since I used a friend's headset I've wanted one, but refused to get one for this reason.
