Dropped a comma. Here, I'll put it back.

"Facebook’s Oculus acquisition hasn’t changed the world, as expected."

Not a native English speaker, but if I understand correctly, that changes the meaning to the opposite?

Indeed

Yes. I changes the sentence to read "We expected Facebook's Oculus to not change the world, and then it did not change the world."
