The article focuses on issues of autonomy, simplification and polarization, illusions and expectations in the digital age. The analysis is based on two trends: (1) frustration and loss of illusions about fundamental values such as human rights, justice and the rule of law; (2) immersion in artificial, illusory worlds that create a misperception of reality in private and public spheres of life (this is especially evident in the digital space). The article highlights how both trends are associated with deep injustice and blatant «non-law», as well as almost invisible attacks on justice and the disappearance of law.
 It is established that the uncertainty and unpredictability of the consequences of many actions in the digital environment, as well as the use of digital tools are rather subtle attacks on autonomy and justice. At the same time, autonomy is threatened by direct and indirect influence of various actors, which leads to simplification of perception, polarization of thoughts, radicalization of views and actions of individuals and groups.
 The degree of freedom that individuals have today could be difficult to determine or they would have a misconception about how free they are in their actions, thoughts, and choices. Falsely secure illusory worlds, digital identity, information asymmetry, significant imbalance between the interests of the main beneficiaries of digital technologies and their consumers – all this undermines the human capacity for free judgment and free choice and strengthens disbelief in law, including its key elements, especially, human rights.
