…but the whole thing is real stupid.
According to a story found here, a 43 year old Japanese woman got so upset when her ‘virtual’ husband divorced her from a Second Life type of game (called ‘Maple Story’ I believe?) — that she hacked into his computer with his login and pass in order to kill his online alter ego.
The thing is she really didn’t ‘hack’ anything; she just used the login information that she knew from him and deleted the character he had ‘raised’.
She could get a prison term of up to 5 years of be fined $5000 dollars. Stupid. What they should do is make her login as her character for a year and the character has to do hard time.
