Apple Vision Pro is a mixed-reality headset – which the company hopes is a “revolutionary spatial computer that transforms how people work, collaborate, connect, relive memories, and enjoy entertainment” – that begins shipping to the public (in the United States).

The data Apple collects is not “consumer” data like the brand of toothpaste you buy. It is more akin to medical data.

For instance, analysing a person’s unconscious movements can reveal their emotional state or even predict neurodegenerative disease. This is called “biometrically inferred data” as users are unaware their bodies are giving it up.

Apple suggests it won’t share this type of data with anyone.

    Yeah. Go ahead and start abusing when you have nothing meaningful to argue with. And like all such unimaginative abusers, you always get it wrong.

      You’re attacking them for “not caring about” imaginary side effects they completely destroyed their product to limit, despite the fact that devices capable of actually doing what you claim unconditionally already exist and have a right to exist with literally no restrictions and do not violate any law in any way.

      Unhinged lunatic is the only possible explanation. There is no theoretical possibility that you are a reasonable, informed person acting in good faith.

        You can’t bill it as imaginary just because you don’t like it. Cases of stalking and spying using airtags are all over the news. And asking for people’s privacy to be respected isn’t anti-tech. You’re just so full of strawman arguments and nothing more.

        And it’s rich for you to accuse me of bad faith when all you do to support your arguments are personal attacks.
