Hi Jason!

Yes, i understand your idea, but it creates a dilemma... are we going for 
some kind of reality simulation or we will get away from reality more and 
more?
In RL we dont have this level of privacity... maybe neighbours can´t see 
inside your bedroom like in SL, but they surely can hear you. ((:
To have a complete privacy in RL, you need a ton of money, like in SL if you 
can buy an island just for yourself, you can have complete privacy.

But I´m not against what youre saying... i would just like to be able to see 
the "shell" of a privacy on land, something mentioned before, that we could 
see the outside walls of what is built there. Maybe just the people inside 
is invisible to the underage? dont know what would mean less burden on 
system.
