just use your brain and don't upload your face and driver's license to a gossip website. when I was growing up, it was common knowledge that you shouldn't post your identity online outside of a professional setting.
The onus is on users to protect themselves, not the OS. As long as the OS enables the users to do what they want, no security policy will totally protect the user from themselves.
This is becoming more unfeasible as it becomes required to access online services like reddit, nexusmods, verification on dating apps. Sending facial, and documentation data is becoming mandated by governments across the world.
I've seen enough media from Japan to know where this is heading
Funny, in the comparison image the article shows for the 3 design styles - Skeuomorphic, Flat, Liquid Glass - the Skeuomorphic one looks absolutely best to me:

The items look so much more tangible, and the text is more readable. Everything is easy to grok visually. The flat design looks way more confusing. And the liquid glass one looks even worse.
Yeah at the default sizes i couldn't read the glass ones nearly as easily. the icons themselves look like a bad icon pack that i could download on android 14 years ago

I think the world is progressing away from headsets or screens.
We will just have an AI that will do everything, we just ask. "Book a flight, order a pizza and reply to my emails" boom, done.
Possibly, but the issue with chat interfaces is you often don't know what options are even available, and you still need the ability to browse information, so I think some screen will still be needed.

"Here to stay" doesn't say much. VR is as of now an extreme nieche and the reasons for that is more the space requirements and simply that having to wear a device sucks - those reasons are inherent and will not change with new tech.

If we're comparing to 3d glasses for movies like the parent comment said then that is a huge difference. samsung is releasing an android headset this year this long into VR which they didn't do for 3dtv. this generation of VR has already lasted longer than 3D-tv 6 years.
There are space requirements for base stations, but it can be played for many hours in a chair or in bed. Not every experience requires a large room. Newer headsets are self-tracked so that's already been solved by new tech.
The bigscreen beyond 2 is 107g and can be worn for hours. Struggling to see how portability and versatility won't improve with new tech.

Companies have been trying to make AR/VR the next platform shift but I'm not super convinced that people actually want or desire this outside of a few niche games. To me it feels like it has about as much staying power as 3D glasses in movies.
For gaming and media consumption, VR is here to stay. The meta raybans have also been successful.
As far as replacing your smartphone with AR glasses that remains to be seen

Meta haven't abandoned the metaverse, and made it very clear from the beginning that "the metaverse" was something that does not exist, and will not exist in any form until the end of the decade. They continuously reiterate this during earnings calls, while increasing their capital expenditures on it.
You cannot determine it's a waste if the effort isn't completed, and if you have no insight into their progress.
people always criticize zuck on this, but he's been pretty consistent on long-terms goals with AI and the metaverse working together
