Thank you. This strengthens the argument that everything from Facebook is malware. Time to get rid of WhatsApp.

oh no a dumb fuck

fucking creepy:

Facebook can now mine your physical movements such as how you jerk off or whether you play with your butt for even more personalised sex toy advertisements.

I wasn't gonna buy one anyway because being an early adapter is stupid and i don't care much for VR but this makes me want one even less

>mfw /g/ was right again
This is why nobody on /g/ ever took the Cuckulus Rift seriously.
I'm getting a Vive personally.

>He had whatsapp until now
It might be time to get your brain scanned, anon, because I think you have a bad tumor or two if you ever thought whatsapp was anything other than shady as fuck.
>>53842164
This pretty much.
I'll wait for a smaller company to make something like this before shelling out $599 usd to these goys with their proprietary slobber all over every aspect.

>through the Services
Well who fucking cares then.
Is it seriously that fucking hard to put the daemon on a blacklist guys?
Just install the drivers and block the rest, you don't need the fucking Facebook launcher.
I'm buying a vive regardless.
Valve may do all the same shit, but at least they seem like decent people.

If I could choose who used what no one would use WhatsApp, but you see, messaging apps require all parties to use the same client, I'm sure you know that. I'll keep WhatsApp as a "friends service", I can't move everyone away from it.
Thats why im going with ps4 and sony's vr. Dont have to worry about privacy when it comes to vidya.

1. Your friends are retarded if they don't understand why WhatsApp is bad. Sorry, they simply are. Even my non-techie friends and relatives have dropped the use of WhatsApp and Facebook because it terrifies them.
2. If they stop talking to you unless you're signed up to WhatsApp / Facebook, then they aren't your friends. I'm not sure how you arrived at the delusion that this is how normal people interact.
>>53842789
The problem is not the people close to me, but the people semi-close that don't value my opinion, but it's convenient not to be unable to talk to them digitally.

>but it's convenient not to be unable to talk to them digitally.
Everybody who is not a close friend and who I've needed to contact for some reason or other uses e-mail over here.
What kind of country do you live in where e-mail is not the standard digital communication format?
>>53843264
Email is not so comparable, because it's a slow from of communication. Still not having WhatsApp would require people to take extra effort to contact me, I'm not sure that is worth the being free of WhatsApp's botnet, which is not that bad yet.
