MY Space is not safe! i will give you 2 reasons that will shock you


Myspace Contract

1) . The contract states that MySpace collects your information like name, email address, age, and personal interests. And has the license to use and publicize your information in any way it chooses.

That is how this free website makes its money. It sells your information to other sites. Often times, it’s pornographic and suspicious websites that you wouldn’t normally visit. It also makes it very easy for a sexual predator or a computer hacker to find your information on Myspace.

And the contract actually states that it can use your information.....

2) Tom Anderson (the co-founder and president) ran a pornagraphy site before his MySpace days..... He photographed the models himself and was almost sued for sexual harrassment !!!!


MySpace is not a safe site... you really have to be careful what you put in your profile... you never know who is looking at it or using it.

Thanks for the heads-up, Ken. This is one of the depressing downsides or abuses we're all seeing on the user-produced Web, or "Web 2.0." I think it's important to put it in context, tho'; there are plenty of positive, creative uses of html (social networkers' opp to put that computer code in their blogs and profiles), which is how these porn redirects happen, I believe. Another example of the upside/downside is in video-sharing, as the Associated Press reported over the weekend in "Online Video Boom Raises Risks, Concerns." Yahoo Video, YouTube, Guba, Google Video - all those sites where young producers and videographers can upload their creations - are scrambling to figure out how best to allow for the creativity of creators of all ages, shown to viewers of all ages, while dealing with abuses in an intelligent, granular way. These are interesting times for "consumer" Web businesses!
