Sex and Google’s Lively – the darker side

August 4, 2008 by Metaverse Journal Editor Leave a Comment

I wince sometimes at some of the stuff the Second Life Herald publishes – it’s an individual taste thing – but their expose on the darker side of Google’s Lively is well worth the read. The Herald’s Pixeleen Mistral posed as a 13-year old avatar and was subjected to some unwanted attention.

Any 3D chat experience is going to attract deviants – the challenge for Google is how they manage this.

    They really do have a lot of work to do to catch all of those types of rooms. Even if they don’t call the room “sex” this or that, the content in the room may still have it in a YouTube video or something. There really is no clear line in the sand!
