In a stroke of absurd marketing genius, adult website BaDoinkVR.com launched a microsite entirely devoted to giving away free Google cardboard headsets.
The simple site lets visitors input an address to receive Google's virtual reality viewing device, completely for free. The backdrop to the site is a photo of an attractive, pouting woman trying the glasses on, but there's nothing NSFW about the site. The BaDoinkVR site is advertised in small type in the upper corner of the page and its app is topmost in the list of suggested applications to try with the high-tech specs. Upon receipt of a free Google cardboard, subscribers can use the goggles for activities as lecherous or as wholesome as their heart desires.
According to GQ, the adult entertainment site is truly embracing VR, featuring "360-degree videos, which allow the viewer to ogle a parlor full of debauchery as if in the room." The free Google cardboard it is offering its users (or really anyone) apparently enhances the experience of the site.
