Spying Tracking and Stalking

[Moloch Redgrave]

There is a person who created over 100 bots that is roaming them around the grid for tracking people's movement.  These bots collect data on everyone in the sim. They normally come in for 10 seconds do a radar sweep of the sim and collect data then TP' out to the next sim. I would see this constitute as spying, stalking, and tracking of avatars.

Your thoughts on the matter?

Sure!  Isn't that why they have bathrooms and broom closets?

Just had a look and found a Linden hiding in the basement!

Just like Linden employees hide themselves from view concept.

God Mode is detectable, btw

Lock the thread.

About the only thing I think will be agreed upon here.

You know if I wanted to be evil, I wouldn't just have the bots. You do know that literally anything with a script can gather a whole lot of info that the bots can, right?

Given the appropriate amount of compensation, how many creators do you think might put a code snippet in if you asked them to? What do you think would happen if a few very popular attachment creators were to include such a script snippet? Why, someone who did that would have a whole army of bots without even needing an army of bots.

So I ask you, do you really trust that body? That aura? That hat? That sparkly "magic" HUD? That vendor? That house? That tree?

Are you sure?

Just putting that one out there.
