Spotted on Onrez sim, kulton Short was selling a copybot which allows the user to duplicate an avatar's clothes, skin, attachments and even their profiles!
kulton was asked for a demo of the product and he obliged with an alt account - Popper Washborne - who within three seconds had duplicated Charlotte Bartlett's clothing and skin. Another couple of minutes, and her prim attachments would have been duplicated too.
Additionally, as can be seen above, her profile was also duplicated.
In-depth on what the Avatar Copy will duplicate:
Prim attachments: Yes
Skin: Yes
Shape: Yes
Groups with open enrollment: Yes
Interests: Yes
Picks: No
Classifieds: No
SL and RL profiles: Yes
You do not have to be near the avatar for this copybot to work, but on the same region. All the copied components (this includes the textures on the sim) will be copied with FULL permissions into their inventory.
Please pass this message on to other SL users and raise awareness of this.
Well hopefully there is a way to disable certian scripts from running in SIM. I believe estate managers ((uber estate managers/owners)) are so would try to find out what the name of the copy bot mk 3 owner is and ban its ability to run..
that's some nasty stuff. Needless to say, anyone caught using this would face a life time ban, an abuse report. ((hey they did'nt purchase the content it IS theft,))
However it can't copy your name or your bank details. Thankfully, It's just your uniqueness at risk. |
