While the web trends away from open, Facebook is zigging where others are zagging and supporting the resistance technology-wise.

What are you even talking about?

Facebook is THE biggest actor who works non-stop against the open web and is the biggest closed-off silo of data on the web.

If hardware manufacturers actually wanted this, Meta would be announcing a licensing deal. This is a threat to Apple: if Apple doesn't relent on advertising/privacy in VisionOS, then Meta will do to VR what Google did for smartphone's: sell the market to maintain advertising access. Meta doesn't care about money or mindshare on VR. They just want ad access.

they want ad access because they care about money and mindshare (a term I hadn't heard of until reading your comment, so thank you for that!)
