From Lipstick Alley @iambordeleau posts a great explanation of what was wrong with Keanu Reeves' flippant comment about his avatar being used in sex mode.

The subject matter he is talking about is an ethical problem that is
growing in the gaming world and he is making light of the problem to the
point of dismissing it as cool and fine. CAM was trying to set him on
the right path and was expressing her repulsion at the problem and the
subject and he just went on and on elaborating on it and never discussed
the potential repercussions of a world where doing things like this in a
game could have real life consequences.
The reality is that someone took his avatar in the game and added the skin (his appearance) to another avatar that was a sex mod, so that their character could have sex with Keanu. Maybe Keanu is fine with this, but many other individuals who also gave permission to the game makers to use their image for an avatar would not be and have not given permission for their images to be used in this way. These individuals would feel violated by this act and by the fact that they've been used for sex without their consent - this is a form of virtual rape and could be considered a form of sexual assault. There is absolutely nothing funny or humorous about this!!! So, for Keanu to not take this seriously and not see how this could hurt someone is extremely un-empathetic and short-sighted.
You have to keep in mind that people now stream and record their game play, which means that someone could create a VR sextape using your avatar and stream it online or create a pay-per-view movie of your avatar being sexually violated over and over again. They can profit off of you being defiled in a virtual world. Again, I repeat, there is nothing funny or humorous about this!!!
