In the event you think you're looking at a simulation of the Internet, maybe start out by checking if news, maps, and weather are realistic, to see how good their world simulation is. Live news video should be interesting too.

But if your browser is compromised so that encryption doesn't work, I think you have bigger problems.

The concept of simulation is very interesting, Baudrillard's Simulacra and Simulation and other related theories will gain more strength and meaning.
