The tech giant will begin closing accounts for under 16s, a week before an official ban.

    So how does this affect all those kids with Meta Quest VR? This is why I don’t own a quest and still have HTC goggles regardless of that flaws.

      There’s probably a distinction between a Meta account and a Facebook account.

      I would imagine not at all given that you don’t need a facebook account for Quest and the headset doesn’t count as social media.

        They’re making it harder and harder to use without a FB account. I believe the newest one is near impossible.

          You need a Meta account, not Facebook. They are different.

          Nah, the other way around. Facebook account used to be a requirement years ago, but they dropped it pretty soon.
