Abstract

Abstract Law enforcement co‐ordination agencies have recently issued position/guidance documents relating to the potential for VR environments (the “Metaverse”) to become new environment for criminal activity, and calling for additional work to enhance investigative capability. By reviewing the historic development of VR and comparing it with the appearance of the WWW, the authors propose that the situation is not as dire as the issued documents may suggest, but represents an evolutionary rather than revolutionary step in online experiences. They conclude, therefore, that while ability to examine VR presentation/interaction devices may be useful, continued development of ability to examine online systems remains essential. This article is categorized under: Digital and Multimedia Science > Multimedia Forensics Digital and Multimedia Science > Cybercrime Investigation Digital and Multimedia Science > Artificial Intelligence

超宇宙——不是犯罪的新疆域
执法协调机构最近发布了有关虚拟现实环境(“虚拟世界”)成为犯罪活动新环境的潜力的立场/指导文件,并呼吁开展额外工作以提高调查能力。通过回顾VR的历史发展,并将其与万维网的出现进行比较,作者提出,情况并不像发布的文件所暗示的那样可怕,而是代表了在线体验的进化而不是革命性的一步。因此,他们得出结论,虽然检查虚拟现实演示/交互设备的能力可能是有用的,但检查在线系统的能力的持续发展仍然是必不可少的。本文分类如下:数字与多媒体科学;数字与多媒体科学网络犯罪调查数字与多媒体科学人工智能
