I literally gave away my quest 3 headset because of facebook's walled garden ecosystem, ads, and telemetry. If I didn't know someone that was about to buy one I'd have recycled it.
If Valve did the same shit with the Steam Frame I wouldn't even accept one as a gift. I will absolutely pay a premium for hardware I actually own.
They don’t need to put ads in it to subsidize the cost, they literally run the largest PC gaming storefront.
