When I logged back in there was another resident there, and the phone immediately popped up a HUD, inviting me to talk to said resident. Sounds like we need to perform another scientific experiment!Timbohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04943524641618211239noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2244254045050577232.post-58216649562294576712007-02-05T16:14:00.000-08:002007-02-05T16:14:00.000-08:00There are cases of avatars being "interfered with"...There are cases of avatars being "interfered with" while camping for free money, while their RL selves go off and do, well, RL stuff.

According to Linden Lab, someone's avatar cannot be "puppeted" without their consent, but I can imagine someone being fooled into accepting an item that might allow another to take control of their avatar for awhile.<br />Thanks for the links and comment.Betsy Stollhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00700099323726402443noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2244254045050577232.post-14929328554045410622007-02-05T09:45:00.000-08:002007-02-05T09:45:00.000-08:00I recently read a book about privacy that talked a...I recently read a book about privacy that talked about 2nd life and avatar abuse, e.g., when some people had their avater puppeted and forced to engage in lewd acts which then the people who the avatars had been atached to had to deal with.
