... Last February 27th at 6pm (we will never forget that moment) we got thrown a bomb with the news they were requiring all our customers to buy new $630 headsets (that are exactly the same as commercial ones) and install MHMS on them so we could install and update our ...

Tonight, we learned that Meta has given up on their Meta Horizon Managed Services (MHMS) cash grab, so our customers will not have to pay Meta $180 per year to have the ability to use our VR application (starting on year three). And they can also buy commercial headsets...

This is terrible. Just absolutely terrible. This gives anyone instant access to so much blackmail material is insane. Think about everything your phone has seen and done. Do you want a predator to have your bank login?

This could be incredibly important for anyone that is dealing with narcissistic abuse or an abusive relationship. You never know who is looking for you. If you need to be invisible, don't use a printer.
Hollywood lied to you about "Ransom Notes." You think printing a letter keeps you anonymous? It doesn't. Your printer is a snitch. Almost every color laser printer secretly embeds invisible yellow dots on the page called the Machine Identification Code (MIC). It encodes:
