Linden it seems from this discussion have protected their own name but have not extended the same courtesy to inworld residents that have supported them and been patient with them for a number of years. I think it is totally wrong that anyones name can be taken and used, and can only see that linden Labs is encouraging identity theft, I would see cases being pursued in a rl court if that was to happen, what is the point of building up a reputation based on your character and name if some one can come along and create havoc. It again shows Linden labs total disrepect for us as people, we are it seems just a bunch of pixels here to make them money for them, there are so many ways Linden could improve our inworld experience, the viewer, why not spend time and effort on making this a viewer to work for us, instead of adding all these sill additions that have no true meaning to a better in worlld experience. Get the viewer working then start adding gadgets liek this if you must. One angry Soar

I think that even in a virtual world we have the same rights of identity theft as in rl worlld so I would see serious issues if some one starts to imitate you especially with a view to extorting money or defalming you.
