“…To track changes between versions of the policy over time, we used Microsoft Word's compare feature between iterations of policy. The value of comparitive, longitudinal approaches to analysing platform privacy policies has been highlighted previoulsy by studies such as Neville’s (2020) examination of Amazon and Katzenbach et al's (2021) ‘platform governance archive’, covering the policies of Facebook, Instagram, Twitter and YouTube.…”

Virtual reality – a site of renewed interest for major players in the tech industry – is increasingly one fraught with questions of data capture. This article examines the case of the Facebook owned virtual reality company Oculus and its intensifying privacy and surveillance risks with respect to the data generated and gathered through its devices. To explore the surveillance-centred structures of Oculus, this article examines Oculus’ privacy policies from December 2014 (the first version following the company's acquisition by Facebook), and October 2020 (the most recent iteration of the policy). In so doing, we examine these policies as sites of discourse, asking how they frame and afford power and control to Facebook, and position Facebook and Oculus’ surveillant aims and logics relative to societal concerns about, and regulations of, data.

ZusammenfassungDer Name eines Social-Media-Accounts fungiert stets als digitaler Paratext. Der Aufsatz schreibt deshalb eine Geschichte des Facebook-Accountnamens. Hierbei spielten diverse Akteure eine Rolle, insbesondere die Firma Facebook selbst mit ihren frühen Formularen und Regularien, aber auch Aktivist:innen, die das Recht erkämpften, mit einem anderen Namen als dem von Facebook definierten „real name” schreiben zu dürfen. Es wird mithin die Frage diskutiert, durch welche Technologien und Praktiken das semantisch folgenreiche Formular der Namensgebung die Form und Funktion hat, die heute beobachtbar ist.
