Oculus Rift No More - Now Facebook for Your Face

43,312 views 3 weeks ago

Fight against censorship & support the show: http://nixiepixel.com/go/sh... || There have been stories around the internet explaining the "positives" of Facebook buying out Oculus Rift VR. This is not one of those stories.

Most of us wanted Virtual Reality to finally succeed, so we gave 2 million dollars to Oculus (most specifically, Palmer Luckey) to help pursue this dream. Two years later, with not a whole lot of warning, he sold the Oculus company to Facebook. Were we upset? Of course we were. Should we be? Let's find out.
