Dear Bhinneka,

People's experiences in these virtual environments are closer to those in physical reality than on the two-dimensional internet, necessitating a rethinking of how governments and the industry should approach regulations and security measures for an immersive internet.
 
How can stakeholders work together in order to develop best practices and principle-based approaches to privacy, safety, and integrity in the metaverse of virtual worlds?
