RALEIGH, North Carolina (AP) -- Citing federal privacy law, MySpace.com said Tuesday it won't comply with a request by attorneys general from eight states to hand over the names of registered sex offenders who use the social networking Web site.


Shut down the site

The attorneys general can get a court order like the law says and MySpace can then turn the records over. MS has their own liability issues to deal with. BTW, how would MySpace know which of their users are registered sex offenders in the first place? Forget all this, if they’d get rid of the sex offender registry and keep the sex offeders in jail where they belong, we would have to worry about this cr_p.

I actually agree with Qurious on this.

mySpace shut their sites down, diminishing the possibility that the Feds could get a court order and mySpace would still be able to turn it over.

If my daughter having a Myspace acct. makes me a bad parent, so be it.

It doesn't make you any such thing. My teenagers have accounts. I have their passwords, make sure their accounts are set to private and only people they know (friends and family) can be on it. I don't let them run rampant and add anyone they want. And I know you don't either. That's just stupid. And I got an account of my own so I can spy on them that way too.

Good points.
