The Linden world of Second Life might be the first highly successful 3D metaverse technology, but it shouldn't be the only option.

In fact, I thought about posting just that to the original article (or rather, the forum thread mentioning it).<br/><br/>Not only shouldn't that happen, I don't think it CAN happen. Both in the practical sense (the methods of identifying users being far too unreliable, and the current abuse process being unscalable), as well as a developmental sense (it can't happen while still allowing SL to become what it is supposed to become; The web never would have taken off the way it did if it had a TOS and a central authority allowing and denying access). <br/><br/>Ultimately, LL will have to turn control over who gets banned from what to the owners of the sims themselves. And that means sim admins WILL have to have access to information like IP addresses and the like, just like website admins do. Nope.
