Cybersex Leads To Real Life Lawsuit - Second Life Hack Causes Controversy (VIDEO)
Second Life Hack Causes Controversy

Let’s start at the beginning: It seems Second Life avatars begin life with no ‘nads, and if you want your online-self to be packing heat, you have to pay real dollars to some cartoon plastic surgeon to draw yourself some man-meat or a lovely landing strip and labia for the ladies. So, Kevin Alderman of Eros LLC has been doing just that, raking in cash making smooth cartoons bumpy. But apparently having the junk isn’t enough, if you want your avatar to close the deal, you have to buy some other software from Eros that basically animates your avatar’s sex act. Kind of like Triumph, the Insult Comic Dog, not being able to hump anything without having Robert Smigel’s hand up his poop shoot. Now, an avatar named “Volkov Catteneo” broke the sex program’s copy protection and sold unauthorized copies. So naturally Alderman filed a civil lawsuit in U.S. District Court (real court not Second Life court) in Tampa, Fla., last month intending to screw this avatar right back. This is some weird stuff, it seems to me that this Second Life thing is for people that have given up on their first life.

Kevin Alderman didn't bring sex to "Second Life." He just made it better. The 46-year-old entrepreneur recognized four years ago that people would pay to equip their online selves which start out with the smooth anatomy of a Barbie or Ken doll with realistic genitalia and even more to add some sexy moves. Business at Eros LLC has been brisk. One of his creations, the SexGen Platinum, has gotten so popular that he's now had to hire lawyers to track down the flesh-and-blood person behind the online identity, or avatar, that he says illegally copied and sold it. The $45 SexGen animates amorous avatars in erotic positions. It is software code, written in the scripting language of "Second Life" and placed in virtual furniture and other objects. Avatars click on the object and choose from a menu of animated sex acts. (news.yahoo)
