Privacy is a security issue throughout the advancement of technology due to websites requiring personal information for their services. With VR it would not be any different because there are websites, programs, and services that are compatible with VR, but requires the individual’s credentials to access them. The problem is the individual’s information is not always secure or is used by other companies to gather data. Browsing around the internet using VR may result in companies spamming ads using the individual’s search history which is common in smartphones and computers. If VR becomes popular then companies would try adding ads on everything to make a profit from minor inconveniences. There is potential for malware to appear in VR application which can cause issues with cloud or other programming to either be corrupted or lost. Hacking is another security risk because hackers can record important conversations that are private or steal credentials.
