About this event
The ethical implications of the Metaverse are far-reaching and complex. This insights Live Webinar will investigate the good, the bad, and the ugly sides of Metaverse ethics.
For instance, How much information should be made available to others in the Metaverse? What are the implications of sharing personal information in a virtual world? Should people be allowed to remain anonymous in the Metaverse? What are the limits of free speech in the Metaverse? Should there be any restrictions on the type of speech that is allowed in the virtual world? Who owns the virtual property in the Metaverse? What are the implications of restricting access to the virtual world?
Our panel of industry experts will cover topics such as:
- What concerns should I have about Metaverse Ethics?
- What should I be hopeful about within Metaverse Ethics?
- What can this ethical debate teach us about the future of the Metaverse and immersive technology?
