Second Life's Linden Labs Faces a Class Action Suit

Filed in archive Virtual Worlds on September 25, 2009

The Metaverse Journal reported earlier this month a class action law suit that's been filed against Linden Labs, the owner of Second Life.

The premise of the lawsuit is simple. People violate copyright and trademarks in Second Life on a regular basis. Linden Labs drags it feet on the issue - and makes money as a result.

Metaverse's article details the legal issues. And they correctly point out that the development of this case will be interesting to watch, and will have a profound impact on virtual worlds.
