Is the Vision Pro for watching movies? Working? Being alone? Collaborating? Nobody knows, really.

    Yeah, last thing I want is more attention while wearing those things and the chance that people will be able to hear the audio from the pr0n I’d be watching on it.

      The masturbating in public might be a dead give away too

        Oh shit… I wonder if they see me doing it now? This subway car seems pretty full, but no one’s making eye contact… so I should be cool.

        Actually, this makes me wonder if the Vision Pro would register your strokes as inputs while you were trying to do the deed?

          Yes. And if you’re connected to the internet you’ll start summoning demons.

        Nono you can send out a signal to everyone else’s Vision Pro to hide what you’re doing with your hands. You’ll be totally in private!

        NY post is awful. Deliberately misconstrued this Reddit thread for clickbait.

        Web based vr pron works.

        https://www.reddit.com/r/oculusnsfw/comments/1ahffm0/anyone_figured_out_porn_on_the_vision_pro/

        Sideloading apps is also easy.

        Where there’s a will, there’s porn. You can watch porn on any Apple device now. The issue I believe they’re calling out is a formatting issue with some video formats that porn uses, but that can be fixed with some conversions and probably more depends on 3rd party apps, which will likely show up at some point if they’re not already there.

        The porn thing is overblown - it’s only about VR porn. You can watch all the porn you want in a video player or web browser. However people who don’t like Apple eagerly ate up this news, as if Apple banned porn on the device somehow.
