It is obvious that there are privacy challenges with VR goggles like the Meta Quest 2, and with the technological development, these will become even more critical. For example, the new Meta Quest Pro also tracks eye movements and could therefore provide even more detailed user data, such as what content people look at. But we don't even have to go that far, as an interesting study by researchers from the University of Berkeley shows, because users can already be identified solely on the basis of movement data.
