They forgot to mention it breaks REVIVE so you can not play any OCULUS home games on the HTC Vive. Nice move Oculus. Your really sticking by plamer's words:
"If customers buy a game from us, I don't care if they mod it to run on whatever they want. As I have..."
“This is a hack, and we don’t condone it,” Oculus VR said in a statement issued to VRFocus. “Users should expect that hacked games won’t work indefinitely, as regular software updates to games, apps, and our platform are likely to break hacked software.”

Some folks just chose to hear only what they want to hear.

It's more an issue with Oculus constantly contradicting itself. Palmer clearly stated that they had no interest in blocking games to run on other platforms.

...as it seems quite likely this won't be the last time an Oculus update breaks Revive.

Pushing software changes whenever you feel like it without asking is completely wrong and unacceptable.

Revive still works.
They made it so games won't startup if the rift isn't connected. New drm that treats the rift as a hardware authorization dongle."
