Good morning! How do you think about corporations and people doing business and communicating in a privately owned "metaverse"?

@DeWayfarer so that's the convention that needs changed. Permanent laws don't exist.

@Stopmakingsense when you give any corporation that kind of power you have already let the genie out of its bottle.

Except this is no ordinary genie. This is a Jinn aka djinn that controls genies.

When I got into the internet there was only IANA and the W3C and ISO. You might think of CDs and DVDs when comes to ISO. It's worlds beyond that.

@Stopmakingsense ISO's are another very important international branch that predates the internet and continues on today as a different set of standards that extremely few even think about.

Must say any of these ISO's are available freely everywhere else on the internet yet here you must "BUY" them!!!

The original ASCII ISO standards predating the internet.

https://www.iso.org/standard/6825.html?browse=tc

And other ASCII related ISOs.

Today's internet security standards. Those involving "... security of assets such as financial information, intellectual property, employee details or information entrusted by third parties."

https://www.iso.org/isoiec-27001-information-security.html

And finally crypto currencies like Bitcoin which are under no governments control

https://www.iso.org/standard/39921.html

This ISO organization is also internationally run and under no countries control.

Must note this organization controls far far more standards across the world. Sort of like an international weights and measures standards organization, accept a whole world bigger.

See their main page for everything else. It's huge beyond huge

@DeluxedEdition yes, a public run level playing field.
