Over on the sister forum on Xstreet (the former SLExchange), someone has stumbled across something that looks downright ominous:
http://uncensored.xstreetsl.com/modules.php?name=Forums&file=viewtopic&t=71235
What looks like a spoof site on which you can register with bogus information and it will STILL take you to your SL account and location.
/me shivers uncontrollably at the implications.
There are some far smarter and more experienced IT folks on this forum. I hope they can shed some light on this so I don't have to hide under my bed and go back to communicating by passenger pigeon.
Any answers?

Go to the XStreet site, go into marketplace - check on "Show Mature Content" - you will see that it switches to uncensored.
So to me, looks just like the originator has "show mature" on in XStreet |

Looks like the site might be a cookie grabber.
