If it still requires a Facebook account, no way. I walked away from that site 8 years ago and never missed it once.

    Quest headsets haven't required a Facebook account in nearly 2 years.

    It's literally not, though. You don't have to have a social media profile. It's the same as having a Vive account on an HTC headset.

    Why do I need an account at all for my peripheral device?

    Imagine not being able to use your kbm or monitor without signing into some service to track you.

    You can create a dummy account and fill it with bogus data. I even share mine so it doesn't even belong to a single person.

    That's a bold move, Cotton. The account would get flagged and suspended fairly quick, me thinks.

    It's been almost a year and it still works fine. I even set it up as a dev account to sideload apps and make calls to the wit.ai api in a few projects.

    It depends on how much you share that account, is my point. While internet randos using it would obfuscate any one persons activity, I am not sure how it would work in practice. Maybe you are already sharing it with a dozen other people? I dunno. Security bots tend to clamp that kind of thing unless Meta really gives zero fucks.
