Hey, the Zucc looks slightly less creepy as a VR puppet in that propaganda clip. I guess that's something.
For real, though. All of the marketing is "it's coming, it will be everywhere" which makes it sound roughly as appealing and positive as Covid. What is supposed to be the upside to the proles that are being pressured to take this all in? No matter what I read about it, it reads like a threat more than a promise.
Who is this for? Who wants this? Surely the techbros themselves don't actually want to VR shop at Wal-mart or whatever the fuck this is.
I'm not so sure. I know some :so-true: around me and words like "NFT" and "crypto" and even "cloud" are enough to get their attention no matter how janky or :sus-deep: the grift is. I think "shopping, but VR" may already have a captive audience. :desolate:
They probably want to grope other people's VR avatars then stalk them into real life, which will be easier than ever with all that data tracking. :so-true:
