Another major tech conference is skipping this year amid growing concerns about the novel coronavirus.
On Thursday, Facebook announced that “the in-person component” of F8 2020, its annual developer conference, has been canceled. In recent years, F8 has served as both a gathering place for developers who make use of Facebook’s various platforms as well as a press conference to announce new products and services. For example, preorders for the Oculus Quest and Oculus Rift S opened at last year’s F8 event.
