Abstract of the research:
The evolution of the metaverse is raising constitutional questions. The opportunities and threats to rights and freedoms in these new spaces primarily developed by online platforms such as social media lead to questioning not only the protection of fundamental rights such as freedom of expression and privacy but also the balancing between conflicting constitutional interests, particularly the protection of individual rights and economic freedoms. This paper argues that the sustainability of the metaverse is connected not only to investments and technological developments but also to the possibility of reconciling and balancing the protection of conflicting constitutional interests.
