The pursuit of cyberism: ontology, epistemology, and ethics in the digital age
Cyberspace has emerged as a fourth fundamental domain of human existence, yet philosophy lacks an integrated framework for addressing the ontological, epistemological, and ethical transformations it produces. This paper develops such a framework through the concept of cyber, defined here as the existential condition in which human life becomes constitutively entangled with digital technologies such that the virtual and the real cease to function as separable categories.
