Oh for Christ's sake, your billing info is nowhere to be seen, it just says you HAVE billing info.

Well, NEWS FUCKING FLASH: Prior to the update, you HAD to have billing info, so everyone knew it already. GET OVER IT.

Actually. I do believe that the TOS allows them to make future changes legally? I have not kept up with it?

How... wha... are you even reading what you're saying? That point aside, yes, it was suppose to change rather you agreed to the terms or not. There is no logical reason to get upset over this.

I don't recall myself, but did the TOS actually mention the "billing info used" change in the profiles anywhere? I understood that to be a seperate issue from the TOS changes, which as I recall involved notifying us that information would be gathered from our computers. It really isn't reasonable to expect LL to hold back a change applied to every single profile in the system. My guess is that there are thousands of accounts that haven't been logged in in months. Are they supposed to hold back changes to those too?

The ToS has ALWAYS had the disclaimer that ALL property (and that includes your avie and any information to it) are property of LL. It also states that LL can change anything for any reason at any time.

If you joined SL, and accepted any ToS, then you agreed to this.

I agree that this information should not be used in this way, but i fyou're looking for a legal standpoint, you have no grounds.

What's the problem? So your profile says you have a verified credit card. Whoopde-do. You do realize that you're actually more likely to have your credit card info stolen when you go out to eat, than when you use it online, right?

There is *no* billing info being displayed. It only shows that LL HAS info and that it's been sucessfully verified. Go hang out at your local Best Buy, or Circuit City, or whatever and you'll SEE people sucessfully using credit cards. And, more than you can get from SL, you'll have faces to go with them! Hell you could then follow them to their homes and get their address!

Oh dear, let's demand curtains around every register! They should make a law about this!
