The skin-crawling aspect of this is that if it ever becomes commercialized, it'll be connected to the internet and will probably come with telemetry.

They are doing stupid things like connecting the power grid computers to the internet, and then worrying about hacking.

Risking hacking and having your private data stolen for the sake of "immersiveness" continues on the modern trend of upside down priorities.

This seems like a dangerous idea. I could see this getting to a point where the stimulation is so realistic that it triggers physiological responses such as shock or heart attacks.
This IS a dangerous idea. The trend is damn everything else, as long as we can advance our technologies.

Some people are saying excessive use of screens without giving your eyes a frequent break is resulting in serious eyesight losses in later years. Some report near-blindness.

We humans don't even understand 1% of how the human body and the mind works. Do it now, pay the penalties later mentality must stop.
