As an individual consumer… Not much. Still wouldn’t buy their product as it’s showing support with whatever little power you have.
In a better world there would be market regulations or something to keep a massive company from burning all their money in a market to have an unfair advantage over all others.
I’m sorry, but it’s not. Same as the alternative to a meat-based diet isn’t “have you tried starving?”. Only other inside-out tracking headsets are made by Apple and Pico (Bytedance). Both companies that are as bad as Meta. You can debate whether humanity needs VR/AR, but that’s a different topic. VR in it’s current state is driven by Meta.

Alternative is not to give any money AND data to Meta
