Sounds horrible. I guess I’m not someone who seeks attention at any cost like some people, it public is the last situation I’d use this thing in. I would feel like a complete dumbass wearing it at a coffee shop and waving my hands around.
Yeah, last thing I want is more attention while wearing those things and the chance that people will be able to hear the audio from the pr0n I'd be watching on it.

NY post is awful. Deliberately misconstrued this Reddit thread for clickbait.
Web based vr pron works.

Sideloading apps is also easy.
Ah, my bad. Thanks for the correction!
The porn thing is overblown - it’s only about VR porn. You can watch all the porn you want in a video player or web browser. However people who don’t like Apple eagerly ate up this news, as if Apple banned porn on the device somehow.
Where there's a will, there's porn. You can watch porn on any Apple device now. The issue I believe they're calling out is a formatting issue with some video formats that porn uses, but that can be fixed with some conversions and probably more depends on 3rd party apps, which will likely show up at some point if they're not already there.
