The Feature:Linden Lab should update its billing system so a single land coordinate never generates two simultaneous Land Use Fees. When a parcel is sold mid-cycle, the seller's tier obligation should immediately reduce pro-rata. The system should dynamically divide billing responsibility based on the exact days owned.

Risk Mitigation & Proposed Policy FixesWhy This Protects Linden Lab (Risk Mitigation):Eliminating double-billing removes the risk of users filing anonymous complaints with the Federal Trade Commission (FTC). Proactively fixing this eliminates potential regulatory complications, builds user goodwill, and protects corporate revenue. Proactively fixing this system eliminates potential regulatory complications and reduces legal doctrine known as Unconscionability.

Proposed Policy Fixes:TOS Update: "If a Virtual Land license is transferred, Land Use Fees shall be pro-rated daily. The seller's tier obligation ends immediately upon transfer."

Billing Policy Update: "Your monthly Land Use Fee is calculated based on net daily ownership. Sold square footage is immediately deducted from your billing tier calculations."
