This is important, because unlike a browser connection when you are logged in to SL you're broadcasting a strong non-repudiable identity token.
That is, if I visit Google Groups and then I visit the SL blog, there is no token carried between Google and the SL blog that is passed out to the readers of Google Groups and the readers of the blog. When I visit Luskwood and whatever the newest version of Satyr or Woodbury turns out to be, my UUID goes with me. If I visit Luskwood as Argent Stonecutter, and Grieferzone as Obscure Nomdeplume, I don't want Loser Hax knowing they're the same person. I can turn off voice and media and keep them from getting any information that way, but if I start broadcasting stuff that carries any kind of detailed user-agent- or computer-specific info through LSL, that's bad. _______________________________________________ Policies and (un)subscribe information available here: http://wiki.secondlife.com/wiki/OpenSource-Dev Please read the policies before posting to keep unmoderated posting privileges
