摘要: 代表最先进信息技术综合集成趋势的元宇宙具有虚实相融性、自治性、社会性三个主要特征。元宇宙的出现会引发社会生产结构、运行机制、关系状态的联动变革,在变革中也将引发用户数据隐私被泄露、元宇宙平台权力被滥用、用户个体意识被操控、歧视风险加剧、意识形态安全无法保障等社会风险。元宇宙社会风险的治理方案应当遵循系统化原则和多元共治理念。在伦理方案上,应当坚持坚持以人为本、在元宇宙社区内设立伦理审查机构、开展价值敏感设计和价值熔断设计;在法治方案上,应当及时立法以澄清元宇宙相关法律争议、通过公权力监管和保障用户权利的方式规范元宇宙平台权力的行使;在技术方案上,应当通过以代码规制代码、以技术治理技术的方式优化风险应对方案的内嵌性和可行性。

Abstract: The metaverse, which represents the comprehensive integration trend of the most advanced information technology, has three main characteristics: the fusion of the virtual and the real, the autonomy and the sociality. The emergence of the metaverse will trigger a linkage change in social production structure, operating mechanism, and relationship status. During the transformation, it will also lead to social risks such as the leakage of user's data privacy, the abuse of power of the metaverse platform, the manipulation of individual consciousness, the increased risk of discrimination, and the ideological Safety cannot be guaranteed . Governance schemes of the social risks should follow the principle of systematization and the concept of multi-governance. In the ethical plans, we should adhere to people-oriented, establish an ethical review organization within the metaverse community, and carry out value sensitive design and value circuit breaker design; In terms of the rule of law plans, legislation should be made timely to clarify legal disputes, and the power of metaverse platform should be regulated by means of public power supervision and protection of user's rights; in terms of technical plans, we could optimize the embeddedness and feasibility of risk responses by means of regulating code by code and govern technology by technology.
