Quest 9.0 update not great

[quest2hack]

So is anyone looking into rooting this device as now possibly they could ban your device for sideloading something they don't like?

There is a current vulnerability in the 835 processor that could be used as a way in which a quick google search will turn up (Also looks like a Wlan vuln)

I hope someone finds a way to root this device as why spend 400 on a device which is never yours.......its like renting it with facebook dictating the rules of what you can or cant do

Thoughts?

Update 11/10

So some people have been looking into the latest update and there is indeed a killswitch for oculus to use to ban accounts / hardware

its in com.oculus.horizion.app

performAntiPiracyKillSwitchAction()
isDeveloperModeBlockedOnBackend()
disableDeveloperModeOnDevice()

I do hope someone is looking into rooting this device as this is terrible behaviour from Oculus (facebook) where they dictate what you can or cant use your device for

Out of touch Quest owner here, what exactly is com.oculus.horizon? Is it potentially related to the upcoming Facebook Horizon app or is it just the home menu package? I'd be a lot less concerned if it was just Facebook's stupid VRChat clone that checked for it rather than a system level thing, more as a way of preventing modding for it or something.

However if it's system level and they're adding this functionality now, what else could they add in the future? I'm all for anti-piracy measures but false positives happen, and if they can see exactly what has been sideload on the device and if it triggers a killswitch or not, what else could they see?
