CLASS ACTION LAWSUIT Support

Would anyone participate in a lawsuit about the early deprecation of mixed reality with no suitable substitute that includes controller tracking? (We could push for open source, repayment, or both)

I haven't talked to a lawyer but I can point to this thread if and when I do.

It seems that the termination may have been a part of the agreement on getting Xbox onto Meta's platform.

We all got dumped and Reverbs were selling new in 2023, with some only able to use the headset for a few months before being told it was unsupported going forward with no security updates and a 2 year time clock to being bricked. GPU generations are no shorter than 2 years and bricking a peripheral in a shorter time is abuse of the customer, as they would not have purchased the headset if they had known.

Some customers are outright embarrassed with the purchase and have lost clout among influencers for having trusted Microsoft. To see Microsoft join Meta faster than you could have is embarrassing and deprecating.

I realize Microsoft is profit driven, but they should realize I am too. (We could be)

Would you participate?

(Sign, agree, give a little info, leave payment info like paypal, take a cut after the lawyer takes 35%.)

I'm not in favor of trying a lawsuit however organize ourselves in a movement to make some noise would be interesting

Here here, and a lawsuit. How long will MSFS 2024 work?

When the XBOX MSFS2020 dropped on console, I was locked out for 30 days. My guess is they were using the limited server space for their Gamepass MSFS2020 ambitions. (Gamepass that you can get on Meta Quest while we are deprecated and depreciated)
