This seems like a fair and just solution, and should keep LL off our backs.

Let me add some context to this issue, and an explanation for those who
haven't taken a look. Upon login an EconomyData is sent to the client,
saying how much it costs to do various things in the game. After that
point, the client is responsible for making a payment for the correct
amount every time it does one of those things. Right now there is no
server architecture in place to prevent uploads if people haven't paid
the correct amount, but there is plenty of logging in place to tell if
this is happening. Since there is a snowcrash modification in the wild
(called blackmarket) to halve upload costs and reroute them to an alt
account, LL is now periodically scanning the logs for cheap or free
uploads and will ban accounts using this exploit. People can modify,
patch, or fork libsecondlife however they want but the official codebase
has an obligation to prevent it's users from being banned. The trunk
will automatically sink the required amount of money per upload and no
version of the software that will get an account banned will be
distributed from the official page.
