Here’s some news that will make you respect Luddites: A Dutch teenager is facing charges for stealing 4,000 euros worth of virtual furniture from Habbo Hotel, a 3D social networking site.

Apparently, the teen tricked Habbo residents into giving him their password. Even though the furniture is not real, a spokesman for the networking site claimed, "It is a theft because the furniture is paid for with real money.”

Of course, unlike real theft, the stolen furniture can be regenerated with a mouse click.

Meanwhile, the criminals who performed Facebook identity theft—that is replacing our carefully-worded activities with “being a whore”—on us at the Holiday Inn's business center in Brooklyn remain at large.

(To further explain: During a brief period over the summer when our neighbors blocked their Wi-Fi and before we got our own, the Holiday Inn's business center became our weekend internet source. We once left ourselves logged in on Facebook there and disaster ensued.)
