Yeah I read about the new rule on Myspace as far as grownups being banned from talking to minors. There was also mention that this was not a strong enough measure, since adults can pose as a minor. Just because they say they are a certain age doesn't mean they are.

Also, although I am not a member of Myspace, I know plenty of people who are, and it is a good site for networking and great for bands. The people who go on Myspace and give out all their personal information to just anyone are the ones who end up in these types of situations. I have seen profiles of young girls who give out WAY too much information, such as "I like porn" and then post pictures of themselves in provocative poses, with little clothing on. I just think to myself, what is wrong with them? And where is their common sense? I mean, of course you're going to attract predators if you put up a profile like that. I'm not saying anyone deserves to get raped or harrassed in any way, but these minors or anyone else who acts like this need to be responsible for their own actions.

Myspace should have more monitoring and such, but people who use the site should also use their brains.

Also, these types of things can happen on ANY site, not just Myspace.
