Meta announces always online DRM for all existing and future Quest VR devices
Meta introduces a new API that performs hardware and application checks, targeting piracy among other things.
Meta sneakily introduced "Platform Integrity Attestation API" which basically calls home to see whether the user has a valid license to play.
This means that to run apps user has to have online connection to perform an integrity test. Whether it's only a test on launch or continues call home like Denuvo-like DRMs is not yet clear. This could also mean that modified headsets could fail to pass this test essentially closing down the device for modifications that could damage "platform integrity". Not all details are clear yet but this doesn't look good.
Currently it's optional and up to app developers to enable it.
You're viewing a single thread.
This effectively kills beat saber custom maps, which is a large part of quest users. Currently, the custom maps mod already requires hoops to be jumped through but this is possibly way worse.
The article you’re replying to literally says that it’s not likely going to be used to stop that in beat Sabre.
Lolol only if the beat saber devs willing implement the API that prevents sharing. Christ even on here assholes don't read. It's a optional API and OP is just socially engineering your rage.
Dance for your master you lazy Muppet.
