"Text chat and voice chat are not currently encrypted; see the next section, Private spaces in Second Life, for information on how to secure a private location from unwanted listeners." should be changed to:

"Text chat and voice chat are not currently encrypted; see the next section, Private spaces in Second Life, for information on how to secure a private location from unwanted listeners within the game. This will not protect you against your ISP or other entities that can monitor your network connection."

I think this is an important distinction. To mention private spaces right after mentioning encryption without pointing out that they solve completely different problems, could really mislead users with a false sense of security. Marissa Mistwallow 21:13, 7 April 2014 (PDT)
