I think there are a few different opinions on this, one is a total emersion world with streets of your own and it's own landscape. See Snow Crash https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Snow_Crash

Another version would be something like the "darknet" in the book Daemon/Freedom by Daniel Suarez https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Freedom%E2%84%A2
