The media is swarming on Second Life this week, but not in a good way.
Residents report seeing stories on MSNBC, FOX News and CNN the past few days, and we all know it’s a matter of time untill The Daily Show or Stephen Colbert picks up on the story.
So far, all communication from Linden Labs has not mentioned the possibilltiy that chat logs were included in the attack. However, blog posts show that “Linden Lab CEO Philip Linden personally handled more than 50 calls on Monday”, and Pathfinder and Ryan Linden won the award for “Most Phone Calls Awnsered”.
Today, Linden announced that the Friends Online page has been disabled for a number of reasons (none of which make any since together: “That adds up to a lot of web traffic. One reason why it’s disabled is to ensure smoother service in recent days during our security situation—resetting passwords”, What?!?! It was screwed before the security situation!)
The Times will continuing watching and posting on these developments.
