Bizarre 21st century headline of the week: "Woman Jailed for Murdering Avatar."Turns out the Tokyo woman wasn't charged with murder, since it's still not illegal to kill a fake digital person, even in Japan. Instead she's in trouble for hacking into an online game as her ex-husband (or was it her fake digital ex-husband -- I can't keep up) in order to kill him off.
I don't know ... Those Grand Theft Auto guys seem to get away with a lot more than that.
