What happens when one of virtual reality's founding fathers-a man who literally invented the technology that would shape our digital future-suddenly sounds the alarm about the very revolution he helped create? Jaron Lanier didn't just witness the internet's transformation from liberating frontier to algorithmic prison. He built the tools, wrote the code, and championed the utopian vision. Then he watched in horror as that vision curdled into something unrecognizable. His warning cuts deeper than typical tech criticism because it comes from inside the temple, from someone who knows exactly which decisions locked us into our current digital cage and why those early choices now feel impossible to undo.
