Its a load of nonsense and management speak. Just changing a name doesn't change what a thing is. The idea of the Metaverse seems to be a way to gather even more information about its users. It sounds rather sinister to me.
I agree. I don't trust much of anything said/done by someone who tries to hide an open secret to further their agenda.

The firm says they will sell the name for $20 million lol.

It's a stupid name anyway.
It's the tech equivalent of having a football equipment shop called Hattrick or Kick Off.
You can like it or not, but it's quite appropriate, especially for his aspirations.
