I total agree with all your statements ..... they can hunt and shop and go to all trouble to get things and peoples regions should be safe from copy especially either copy all the best stuff you modify ... or entire sim .... get a brain and go get own ideas and themes .... usually as when some one copy my avatar and put it in a vendor in their regions ... just wait a while they will change it bc no one sees them self or ideas and themes the way I do mine ... hugs i feel your pain especiall when all other laugh you off for being touchy ... yes my ideas and themes are MY IDEAS AND THEMES .. even with free content in OPENSIM

Of course it has international rights, but you know how many people are in OpenSimulator, no court on earth will lift a finger, much too expensive and since there are no "highly criminal" activities going on, you probably have to go to the hoster ... your private lawyer or draw on his technical understanding.
As I said .. there are almost no users in the OpenSim compared to other platforms. And ... the OpenSimulator is free so no commerce in the background ..
Besides, there are as many laws as there are states and opinions.

Yes, there are multiple issues with this.
First, virtual worlds are so new that there are practically no specific real-life laws covering them. If you wanted to convict whoever is behind Priscilla, you'd have to apply laws created for conventional Web services, and they may or may not apply to non-commercial services.
Second, since Otterland is non-commercial, courts may judge that the economic damage can be neglected. But even if Priscilla managed to disrupt the service of a commercial business sim, the economic damage wouldn't be that high.
Third, before you can convict Priscilla, you have to find her real-life location. Priscilla may be an Italian (= Jack Marioline?) who sometimes speaks Portuguese for the lulz. But Priscilla may just as well sit in Portugal or Brazil and use a VPN that exits in Turin.
Fourth, the instance that law meets OpenSim, all hell will likely break loose. If you try to get the authorities to go after griefers, these authorities will first need to know what OpenSim is and what's going on inside the Hypergrid. And then they'll discover that some 99% of all content on the Hypergrid aren't "free as in freedom" but "free as in pirated MS Office and pirated Photoshop". Chances are that what all of you have been so very certain won't happen for the last seven or eight years WILL happen. That the law will turn against copybotting and theft of protected commercial IP from Second Life, sided by Linden Labs and content creators. And if you're lucky, Linden Labs will only have grid owners delete all illegal content and not force them to shut grids as big as OSgrid down for good right away. That is, if it's possible to track down on Priscilla Kleenex in real life, it'll be a breeze to track down content thieves.

I landed at Victorian Christmas and saw the landing and reacted at the sight of it. After further discussions with others I been told that the landing had been about in public for some time.
I pulled my review of Victorian Christmas and I hope you all enjoy the season in their region and up coming events. I had seen the sign in LBSA and had time to go look at it.
