Abstract

Revolutionizing the future has always been one of the most important purposes of humankind and we can finally say that with the newest sensation called the Metaverse, we can achieve that goal. By exceeding every expectation regarding virtual spaces we can also refer to as the ultimate version of the Internet. But at what cost? The idea of the Metaverse has recently gained enormous popularity and has been dubbed "the successor to the mobile Internet". Even though there are currently minimal versions of the Metaverse, the strict sensing, communication, and processing requirements prevent us from achieving the goal of a smooth and interoperable Metaverse. Also, the development of the Metaverse coincides with consumers' growing privacy concerns. The paper starts by giving a quick definition of the Metaverse. It talks about the Metaverse's architecture, concentrating on the definition of the Metaverse, the origins of the Metaverse, and most importantly ethical and moral obligations within the Metaverse. Business, economics, and social advancement all stand to benefit greatly from the metaverse. Nonetheless, there are still several important factors to consider, and there has been hardly any analysis of how they will affect things. Several contributions are made in this paper. Starting with an analysis of the metaverse's foundational principles, then it raises attention to the novel privacy and security concerns raised by this new paradigm, before broadening the contribution's emphasis and emphasizing some of the far-reaching yet logical consequences and applications of the metaverse in the real world.
