As much as I dislike apple, the article warns about not closing the macbook, with the camera covered.
It'sqq still bullshit, but not much about privacy imo.
According to a quick google search the PC gaming share of Mac users is something like 1-2% and the compatible games list is mainly indies, but barely any AA or AAA titles.
If it's true then imagine the price tags they will put on these machines to make profit.
I do have a Xiaomi phone and as I mentioned I am actively using the IR blaster, but the majority of regular users will not even think about checking the specs when buying new tech.
They will just go for the latest iPhone or the current trending android bestseller.
IR blaster for smartphones. I still have one on mine and I can use it for tons of stuff, not just as a TV remote.
I even worked for a company who made lots of IR based products (taps/faucets, accessibility stuff) and it was amazing how many people had to buy the dedicated remotes for these products for extra money.
When I asked them if their phone has an IR blaster, so they could just download a free app and use it instead. "I have an iPhone" was the most common answer.
I mean it's a movie. Who knows how you will enjoy it in the first place and who knows how a future version of the movie will turn out compared to the original?
Unless it's an obvious dumpster fire with 0% reviews go and see it for yourself and form your own opinion.

It's infuriating to read all the comments without explanations what said acronym means.
