I’m with you. AR and VR has potential, absolutely, but companies are not our friends and they’ll find ways to exploit these things to the detriment of us. They always do.

We all know that these companies aren’t above lying straight to our faces. They’re even undermining the concept of ownership so they can milk us even further.

It’s sad, but I don’t see a reality where this kind of tech being closed off and proprietary will ever end well.
