    Why do All tech companies use Black people in their advertisements 🤔

    • Judge Dredd

      September 21, 2021 at 11:35 pm

      To pass the quota for being inclusive.

      For the same reason that all movies and tv shows now have to have a gender fluid unicorn and the lone straight white male is the bad guy or the idiot. It is woke racism.

      The Zuck man isn’t annoying to me. I just don’t care for his products so much or his business ethics.

    Shouldn’t there be an environmental fine for launching redundant products?

      Just because it’s not for you doesn’t mean it’s redundant

    Thanks for the heads-up!

    I would love these to be a Chromebox for the larger one and a Google home go version for the portable one. The form factors are nice but useless with Facebook integration.

    With these portals, expect more Cambridge Analyticas.

    What’s the point of this? Don’t people have iPads or other tablets? Much better option

    • Charles B Leslie Jr

      I am literally watching Mark Zuckerberg talking about this. Never heard of it before. And I came on YouTube to try and figure out…the…exact…same…thing. Oh, it follows you around. So, I guess, I get rid of my laptop and tablet and get this????

    Who actually would trust Facebook to be their home assistant?

    • Antony

      September 21, 2021 at 10:13 pm

      Probably the same people who trust Google and Amazon to be their home assistant.

      I have a window pc with a web cam, a MacBook, an android phone, an iPad, two google Assitant speaker. I think I will trust Facebook as well. 😹

    Most here probably still use messenger, whatsapp or instagram and yet complain about Facebook…. THEY ARE ALL FACEBOOK.

    Word of advice for all of you. NEVER BUY ANYTHING WITH CAMERAS OR MICROPHONES IF ITS MADE BY OR IN ASSOCIATION WITH FACEBOOK.

  18. Ageng Raditya

    September 21, 2021 at 11:48 pm

    OR, just using your phone

    Who is ordering facebook products 😅

    Blows my mind anyone is buying something like this from Facebook and putting it in their house…

  21. Mr. Marc G.

    September 22, 2021 at 12:47 am

    Facebook is evil. You’d be better off inviting a vampire into your house.

  22. Kyle R

    September 22, 2021 at 12:49 am

    I don’t know a single person who uses a Portal, let alone knows what it is.

    Another camera in your life. What happened to privacy. Any product with a camera on it used to invade and record your life is nothing but Big Brother. Your a fool to put your face and activities on their network for their ulterior motives. We need to go back to putting a dime in a phone booth.

    Why would anyone buy these in the world of google and Alexa?
