[Viewer 2 & Viewer 1 Display Differences]

Not that it would be easy for the average user to check, but the source code for Firestorm (V2) and Phoenix (V1) are both accessible by the public. We as users can inspect that code to see if it's collecting data and sending it to other than LL, and if we have the necessary tools installed we can compile that version for our own use.

For those who have network savvy, you can check the packets sent by your viewer and see what they contain and where they go. The data may or may not be encrypted, but the destination is clear.

Do Firestorm and/or Phoenix send data to places outside LL?

[How can I find out my own IP address using the client viewer when someone else logs in as me?]

My friend's account has been accessed by someone not her. She wants to know if there is a way she can see the IP address used when her account is logged in. I know LSL doesn't have that ability, and we don't have the resources to do anything with an HTTP Get.

LL does know the IP address, but she would like to as well so she can report the address to the provider.

Thanks for any information and assistance

 

[edit] I'm aware of the RA fiasco and outcome. I was and am against the practice, I was only curious if anything existed that she would have to wear, such as a hud or RLV device that could report to an "owner" of her choosing. I know collars will report activity, but not IP addresses.

She did change her password, but it was to yet another easily guessable one. The people who are accessing her account know her - insert typical SL drama here - and I am hoping she has selected a better password this time.

She has been in contact with LL, they know the IP address but of course are unable to release it. ARs have been filed, but apparently not much action taken. *sighs*

But thank you for the replies. :)
