Extremism in the Metaverse

With the rapid growth of Web 3.0 – defined as a decentralised form of the Internet where people have complete control over their own data, more transparency, and far more content accessible to users – human communication will become far easier. Technologies that will facilitate this change include the combination of machine learning, artificial intelligence, and blockchain that will be central pillars of the third version of the Internet. The metaverse, therefore – is a product of Web 3.0, incorporating emerging technologies including augmented reality and allowing users to spend far more time in a virtual world where they can live, work, play, and worship. EMAN has been increasing its focus on the role of extremism in tech and how hate speech and online extremism will evolve as the Internet undergoes significant changes as we know it today. Despite the fact that these metaverses act as efficient socialising tools, global companies are already adapting themselves to this concept by developing new business visions that simulate this new Internet innovation.
