Since the world I live in is turning into a communist system, the state monitors all personal property.
The digital world will make it even easier for them to monitor.
Only the state and large corporations have the money and technology to invest in the metaverse.
They invest into building it - you will invest into consuming it, one way or another - that is why they invest.
I agree with you!
In the world I live in, the metaverse is becoming a means for states and large corporations to exploit individuals.
