Germans Pursuing Kiddie Porn In Second Life
Several readers sent in links to the BBC, which has picked up news of a German investigation into child pornography in Second Life. A German TV station captured images of two avatars, an apparent adult and an apparent child, involved in sexual activity. The station also said they had infiltrated a ring trading real-world child porn in SL. SL creator Linden Labs is cooperating fully with the investigation, they write on their official blog: "Our investigations revealed the users behind these avatars to be a 54-year-old man and a 27-year-old woman. Both were immediately banned from Second Life." The German prosecutor's office hasn't responded to Linden's offer of help in identifying the real-world traders.
Are scheisse videos even possible in Second Life?

And who isn't pursuing kidde porn in Second Life or, for that matter, in the first one?
Oh crap.. No wonder they ask so many questions. I gotta go cancel my account.
Maybe these 'sickos' can get their satisfaction on a virtual world?
Won't somebody please think of the pixels?
In the same line of reasoning, I expect these coming soon:
Banning midget sex (as they look like kids). You'll have to be this high to have sex.
Banning sex with stupid individuals (they act like kids). You'll have to be this smart to have sex.
Banning sex with people dressed like kids. strict outlines of what "dressed like adult" will be written in a law.
Banning sex with people who said something that could suggest they pretend to be a child or pretend their mate is a child, or think about something child-related during sex.
Banning videos pictures of adults looking at a kid, smiling or something else that could suggest the drawn indivial could have had eventually potentially thoughts about sex.
Banning adults from touching kids, or people that look like kids, and talking about kids if they saw or did something sexual in the last 24 hours.
How does that work? A person's age is a documented fact. How do you determine in an objective way if someone looks like a child?
I've got a weird mental image of naked 18 year-olds parading through a courtroom of stern-looking German judges requesting permision to be in pornography. (Nein, das ist nicht gut! You're only a B-cup. Come back when you've gotten some implants.)
...I would think they would be tracking down all the furries and arresting them for "virtual beastiality".
But then Linden Labs would lose 90 percent of their revenue...
because it's slashdot and I can :-P

RE: Error found in reprod(m,f)
I found a threading issue with reprod(m,f). Someone set the priority way too high and it's creating a system-wide slowdown that's eating up a lot of resources. I'm thinking of de-prioritizing it to spend more resources in power management instead. Also, invoking reprod(m,m) and reprod(f,f) appears to halt other parts of the system inexplicably.
Please tackle these issues ASAP. They've apparently been around for a while, but since after fixing a lot of other stuff, they seem to be more of an issue.
Sincerely,
Humanity
No mi camisas azules!
I know we have a "+1, Informative," but is there a "-1, Too Much Information"?
I have a solution!
All we have to do is clone the participants, and use the clones. Then when the study is done, just dispose of the clone!
No more ethical dilemma!!
