The New Reality: May 7
Description
May 7, 2022
In what's being described as the next evolution of the internet, the race is on to develop the Metaverse, a virtual world of the future. Even though it’s is still in its early stages, it's projected to be worth trillions of dollars -- and big tech, and other players, are investing in this digital future. As Kayla McLean discovered for this week’s episode of The New Reality, the Metaverse could not only change how we socialize, work and live, but it also raises new ethical and legal concerns — including questions about your security and privacy.
