They all sued, sued ...
Tuesday, SecondLife-based entrepreneur Kevin Alderman, owner of Eros LLC, which offers virtual sex beds in this online world, sued the user of the “game” Volkov Catteneo.
The latter copied the works of the company and offered them for 12,000 Linden dollars (currency of the world SecondLife), which in terms of human money is a little more than $ 45. The entrepreneur requires Linden Labs to disclose the identity of the virtual character, and wants to get from this real person, as I suspect, considerable compensation for the appropriation of property.
This is the first case of litigation regarding virtual property. As we all know, in the US, the case law is a case law, and a court decision in this case can be very important for the entire industry.

Imagine a trial, for example, because of the misappropriation of a sword in World of Warcraft?
