I don't think this is much different of looking at people in the 90s SMSing all the time and what happened after that with smart phones, you can criticize what you are currently living. The VR/AR is just a normal, technical and market, evolution.
In the 80s people started using walkmans to hear their own music instead of listening in their living room with their family speakers.
I think that the social criticism starts much much earlier. Nothing special about Apple.
Another take, adding AI to the equation, is that probably the humanity ego is huge and all these stuff is harming it and we are not as important and intelligent as we thought. We are amazing creatures for sure and will fight for our humanity in the way other animals do for their survival.
