Thank you Joe I'd like to chime in and bring my own concerns since I won't make it to the meeting. My primary concern is about the Viewer Directory and here are my questions :
- Will registering a TPV to the Viewer Directory become mandatory one day ? If so, how can we be absolutely certain that our RL names and info won't suddenly appear in clear on the webpage without our prior consent, even after registering ? - Why the need for RL info at all since LL already knows how to join us in case of a problem ? Why do we have to enter these data again ? - There is no privacy policy on this particular webpage, it is just said that LL "may" make them available. I'd like to point out that this is strictly illegal in most countries (especially in Europe), LL needs our explicit written agreement prior to publishing our data. Registering to a webpage with a "may" or "may not" is not a written agreement. Thank you, Marine On 8 April 2010 22:24, Joe Linden <j...@lindenlab.com> wrote: > Hello, all.
