Nokia N95 update speeds apps with virtual memory

Alert

de-brand your phone

Those people who don't see the update are probably on branded firmware- for example 0546659 is T-Mobile branded. This means updates may be unavailable for some time.

Police aim to stamp out virtual child abuse

@JonB

Linden Lab do police this. Their banning of accounts involved in virtual "sexual ageplay" caused a furore amongst the free speech advocating users. They took this hardline stance on account of this kind of virtual depiction of child sex already being illegal in countries like Germany.

They have to know about it first, though, and that's probably like expecting someone at an ISP to go through every single USENET post on the chance of finding something awry.
