Were LL to police such matters there would be more questions left to attend to. Where do they begin and end their judgment on morality within the realm? Since this is a global community, which laws affect whom based on physical location? Who's to define danger within this virtual world? What penalties should be incurred upon breaking rules? It's likely to see crime in virtual environments escalate with popularity... and some responsibility is to be placed upon their creators. Yet, LL never condoned this behavior and isn't refusing to take action. Like all concerned, I feel this service wrong on a number of levels but what concerns me is the statement "What will those crazy geniuses at Linden Labs think of next?!" It's true that this grossly immoral service is a concoction of users who were <b>enabled</b> by LL... but the proper route to correcting these issues is still ambiguous, much as it is with the rest of the internet. Perhaps, we'll have a properly equipped policing agency in the future? Even then are we safe? and how do we determine responsibility for criminal acts? or even <b>define</b> them?

While technically, in in the terms of service, LL can't be held responsible for the behavior of in-game residents, don't you think they have a greater responsibility to provide a safe environment for all? At what point does a EULA take precedence over common decency? So Linden Labs has no liability here?

Linden Labs is facilitating the creation of a very robust platform for the new 3D Internet - it's only a matter of time before personal computer power in every home will essentially make this the preferred medium for internet viewing. The content produced by SL residents has virtually NOTHING to do with Linden Labs, as can be pretty plainly seen in their terms of service agreement.
