1. Each sim should have a country setting that is displayed at the top of the screen.
This would let the user know what country they are in and what laws apply.

2. Users should be able to set search and teleporting so they don't accidentally enter a country they don't want to travel to.

3. Land owners should be able to ban by country in order to prevent users from that country from entering and possibly breaking laws relevant to that country.

I envision the grid looking more like a map of the world with sims
in each continent being set up as different country's.

Traveling to a sim in a different country would be the same as surfing to a website in that country.

Thinks to think about
1. It's illegal to even depict any sexual acts in some country's.
2. It's illegal to even talk about politics in other country's.
3. Woman in some country's have no rights.
4. "Insulting the monarch is still considered as a serious crime in Thailand and can be punishable with up to 15 years of imprisonment."
I could go on...

No thank. I have enough of real world issues and politics in SL right now. I don't want yet another one to worry about. And oh, unless the sim's servers and company actually stay in that country, it would have no meaning about the law enforcement anyway ;p

Also, I don't want anyone to just know what country I am in even before they start talking with me. And block users by country sound to very much like racialism to me. So no thank.
