The Ontological Problem in the Digital Age

ABSTRACT

The approach that is detailed below is the disposition, from the philosophical criticism, for the establishment of the ontological debate in the digital age, attending to the human situation immersed in a new reality where the original questions about being and being emerge recursively, its temporality. The discussion is based on the expansion and use of the term ontology in the face of Heidegger's response about language as the house of being and the questioning of the question of who generates it, making it the center of the ontology where the digital is presented as a being at hand to lighten the question of being affected by the COVID-19 pandemic as an extreme situation that humans are going through.
