On Feb. 7, just days earlier, Meta, formerly Facebook, pointed to investors in a securities filing that its Metaverse strategy faces potential regulatory risks.

Meta has spent $10 billion to build its yet-to-be-profitable augmented reality unit, seeking to create a virtual world full of avatars.

However, according to the British "Financial Times", experts behind the upcoming "Online Safety Bill" (Online Safety Bill) said that the metaverse will be subject to strict British supervision, and virtual worlds created by companies such as Meta and Microsoft will be restricted. The tech giants could face billions of pounds in potential fines due to the upcoming UK cybersecurity bill.
