Meta will delete all non-migrated Oculus accounts in March - The Verge

This is a most excellent place for technology news and articles.
How is this legal? Feels ridiculous to lose games I paid for just because I didn't migrate my account. Same with the Microsoft minecraft account migration. When I bought my CV1 there was the promise that I would not need a facebook account.
You don't need a facebook account a meta account was available as an alternative. That's great right? Much better!!!
I don't know if meta accounts still exist... The whole migration was a huge mess. The oculus brand was much cooler. I wouldn't have bought my oculus quest 1 if it had been a facebook product back then.
Actually yes. The problem with needing a Facebook account was that it was part of an unrelated service (social network, messenger, etc.) that you couldn't separate. Meta accounts are separate accounts for VR only, much like the previous Oculus accounts.
Makes me think...
It really is better.
I don't trust them not to associate these accounts together with Facebook accounts internally. But that's a bit conspiracyish.
Well considering they basically did just that with Instagram and WhatsApp, it wouldn't be surprising if they did.
