Stop believing everything you see on the Internet.

The Internet did that thing again where they latched onto a clear hoax as if it were real. Someone put up a website for a "Valve Prism" virtual reality headset earlier today and tried to pass it off as a legitimate device from Valve. Except it's fake. It's not real. You all got bamboozled.

At a glance, the website seems convincing enough. It depicts various renders, fluff words, and impressive technical specs for a device that very much does not exist.

First off, the domain was registered today and does not use any of Valve's usual website registration information. Valve typically uses Network Solutions, LLC, while this fake Prism website uses Cloudflare. Furthermore, a look at the HTML code shows that the site uses a capital letter I (eye) instead of a lowercase L for "Valve." As if that weren't enough for you, the specifications for this "Prism" boasts "50-point lips, jaw, teeth, and tongue tracking."

If all you did was take a quick glance at it, don't feel too bad if you bought into the hoax. It's very well done but it's also very fake.
