What does it matter?

It's the people "buying shit" that pay for the places you socialize.  
Without the people "buying shit" there wouldn't be a Second Life.

Or an internet, for that matter, even if a boatload of the stuff  
people buy on the Internet is only protected by "honor system" DRM.

And if you're there to socialize, what does the permissions system  
cost you?
