it is absolutely bananas to me that anyone would put a facebook product with a camera in it in their home
FB Portal is a killer product which doesn’t get the attention it deserves. With Zoom integration, it’s going to be *so much* better than having a webcam.

Did you miss oculus needing a facebook account soon? That's not just a camera, but your physical movements about your home.

A friend of mine worked on the hardware, exceptional engineer. It’s hard to want a friend’s greatest work to fail. Still do though.

Hey look I'll be honest: the hardware is insanely great and beautifully designed. It's just....the company can't be trusted at all.

So you're saying the helmet covered in cameras I bought from Facebook for the purpose of slashing boxes with light sabers to music might not be totally on the up and up?

I keep my Webcam plugged in for convenience. However, when I'm not using it, it's in a box with good lighting pointed at a frame filling picture of Jeff The Killer, just to keep anyone who might find an exploit company.
