I thought being inside would be a safehaven from such societal horrors as mugging, assault, rape and all the other terrible things in life. I thought a miniature online community based on Online Big Brother games would be a great place to dwell on the internet. Why not? What could go wrong?
But a new horror has come to my attention. One that outweighs any of the atrocities of the outside world.
Peoples' Online Big Brother avatars have been edited without their consent. Atrocious. Appalling. Disgusting. I feel physically sick.
That's right, while you aren't looking a small red dot may appear on your avatar for having multiple accounts (or not). How can we be safe when pictorial representations of our identities can be defaced without our consent?
Just terrible. It honestly brings a tear to my eye.
