Punishing every person in SL will not address the fact that people from certain parts of the globe are not in jurisdiction. Can the emotional reactions and think this through.

Do you really think people thieving on this huge of a scale will not forge identity or use stolen credit cards?

There are other solutions, but then Mr. Blue Mars has a possible hidden agenda here, such as reducing SL's user base.

It can't be any worse than LL's seeming agenda to lessen it's user base.

It is, if it has the added bonus of Orwellian record keeping.

The only bad thing about this is people in some countries can be put in jail and stuff if they do things like photocopy their ID's and stuff like that and I think it'd be extremely expensive and ridiculous for those people to have to fly to California just to goto LL to prove they are themselves. Besides Aristotle is flawed anyways when they opened up Age Verification to everyone people were bragging all over the place that they were able to verify themselves with bogus info or other peoples info that they knew. Linden Labs knows this at least they should it's been common knowledge for like a year now....at least I'm pretty sure it's common knowledge cuz I always hear that argument about it with the Adult sims and how kids who used mommy or daddy's credit card to get in in the first place would be able to also get mommy or daddy's ID to verify themselves so how are they really being kept out of the Adult naughty regions exactly.......gah okies I'm gonna shut up before I really hijack the thread here not trying to sorry


I know perfectly well that Aristotle is a joke. That's why, if you re-read what I said, you'll see that I specifically said Linden Lab needs to ditch that piece of crap and keep their own records of people's identities.

Assigning the term "Orwellian" to anything LL does is laughable...they just aren't that smart. OrsonWellian...maybe.
