Second life makes it far too easy to do anything, although it seems to me one can lock out people from doing some things, like pushing others and activating scripts. But security takes time and planning. And nobody takes the time to do that because they want to think it's like setting up a small conference in a hotel room. Fast, easy and nobody is stupid enough to make a big ass out of themselves in it because it'll get them in trouble. But the internet provides Anonymity! Thus, the assholes come raging out!

You can deny people access to scripted objects, you can limit their actions, you can even boot them off the land entirely. If C|Net's presence in SL were properly run by someone familiar with the system, the peni would have been just a momentary annoyance at most.
