Abstract

The metaverse is an isolated experience that removes us from the world and fosters solitude rather than society. Annmarie Hanlon writes that we must also consider the values of the platforms providing this virtual reality experience. Facebook even rebranded to Meta, but it has a history of ethical dilemmas. And that, she writes, is the devil we know. How will we assess new entrants and new platforms that arise?
