    Im so confused why this wouldn’t work and I didn’t see anywhere in the article the actual reason. Can anyone explain it better? Can you not just play a vr video file? Is it blocking the sites? I’m just confused.

      My understanding is that it allows you to play planar video from a website, but not (yet?) side-loaded videos that are spherical/hemispherical. And the latter is what these people really wanted for this application.

      They’ll just monitor everything you watch or do on it and detect anything NSFW.

      I wish this was a /s but I can definitely see it happening since they’d have to ban the whole Internet to keep any sites with NSFW content from playing

      Like most safari complaints from nerds you’ll just have to enable it in the advanced settings.
