The biggest difference between Second Life and all these crypto/meta bullshit worlds is that the people in Second LIfe actually wanted to be there. Second Life's custom furry sex dungeons were actually fun to its players. Those crypto worlds? Entirely filled with bagholders trying to earn fractions of a penny through grinding, or scammers selling virtual Brooklyn Bridges. The corporate Meta worlds? Nothing but sponsored events filled by tech reporters, marketing interns, and influencers doing the bare minimum specified by their sponsorship contracts.

I assume righth now lots of people are verifying, or ensuring, that their project is fundamentally incapable of implementing a court order like that because when you stonewall a court they just give up and admit you won right

Upon further examination, the horses appear to be dead, except for one that is just a vaguely horse-shaped pile of hay.
