Hello,
I would like to suggest an improvement to Second Life's privacy system.
Residents can currently choose to hide certain real-life (RL) information through the privacy settings on the My Second Life website. However, these settings do not appear to apply to the Second Life Viewer.
As a result, information that a resident has chosen to hide may still be visible to other residents when viewing their profile in the Viewer.
For consistency and privacy, a resident's privacy choices should apply across the entire Second Life platform, including both the website and the Viewer.
I would therefore suggest that:
Privacy settings from My Second Life also apply to profiles viewed in the Second Life Viewer.
Information that a resident has chosen to hide should remain hidden in the Viewer.
Privacy settings should be synchronized between the website and the Viewer.
This would provide a more consistent privacy experience and give residents better control over the personal information they choose to share.
Thank you for considering this suggestion.
