I don't ever cared about violence in video games, music and movies and such.
I always thought that people arguing that violence in these games should be censored were just puritans.
But with sufficiently advanced VR, I believe that you can really feel like what it would be like to someone who is extremely violent. And I wonder if this can desensitize someone to the point where their propensity to be violent is significantly increased due to VR usage.
We'll need to take ethics in VR more seriously as VR becomes more mainstream and more powerful.
