INLS 180 Day 14 Notes
1. One minute papers
Main Points
The actual experience in the
MOO helped in understanding the issues in the Dibbell
reading
MOO you are not in control,
unlike other fantasies you control (e.g., movies, books)
MOOs are NOT real life!
MOOs ARE real life!
There is a fine line between
words and actions
People get engaged in MOOs because they develop/have identities to
protect/project
Openess vs control
Questions
Why not more popularity of
MOOS?
Will cybercrimes
have their own laws, police, courts?
Is the Dibbell
problem not simply a personal problem---Madame Bovary had ‘reality/fantasy’
problems because she read too much
How are crimes of mind
distinct from crimes in RL?
