SecondLife Being Melted With Grey Goo
Posted by Dave Evans
I went to buy some new clothes for my SecondLife avatar today after doing some real life shopping in NYC over the weekend. It turns out:
A "griefer" -- person who disrupts video-games -- is attacking the online world Second Life with self-replicating "grey goo" that is melting down the Second Life servers. "Grey goo" is shorthand for an apocalyptic nano-gone-wrong scenario wherein nanoassemblers replicate so profligately that they reduce the world to slurry.
Nuke tests in North Korea and now digital nanotechnology is crippling the metaverse. What's next?
Via BoingBoing.
