To The Internet Websites: My Responses

The Facebook Riots:
These riots are understandable. Facebook puts out information that should not be given out, or even asked for. On the News Feed, it makes no sense to have to read about all your friends, who goes together, who deleted who as friends, who added applications to their site, and all that unnecessary mess. Facebook wants to make sure you aren’t lying. They even send a comfirmation to the other person(s) stating if you go to their school or if you’re in a relationship with them. I am not a huge fan of Facebook, but I like the fact that I can find all of my old friends from elementary on there. If Facebook didn’t tell people’s business, they wouldn’t have the complaints they do now.

MySpace Faces A Perp Problem:

We all should have seen this coming. Not to be discriminative, but the sex offenders don’t stop until they’ve gotten enough, and as we see, they haven’t gotten enough…. Yet. MySpace is dangerous, and even if they are deleting sex offender’s accounts, they can multiply back; they can even be the staff deleting them out of the system! All of the chatting websites are dangerous: Blackplanet, Facebook, CrushSpot, Tag, Bebo, and your very favorite, MySpace. Everywhere you go there’s someone that’s broken the law, once or twice. Even if the sex offenders get kicked off one site, they can do two things, go to another site and/ or make a new profile. You never know right?

MySpace Finds 29,000 Sex Offenders on its Site

Again, we all should have seen this coming. If you face a perp problem, quite naturally you’re going to face a couple of sex offenders off in that mix, right? They should have expected this; almost all of the United States uses MySpace to meet people, talk to friends, or other stuff. Those sex offenders can pose as your own friend’s name, shoot they could even be one of your friends! That’s terrible, considering the fact that MySpace just got rid of 7,000 and then some accounts that belong to registered sex offenders. You can’t really get rid of them, they just keep coming back, and if you try to block them from somewhere because of their past, then that’s a really big issue that I don’t think MySpace is ready for.

Counting Sex Offenders on MySpace

The only thing I have to say to this is “What the …?” There’s no understanding as to why MySpace has so many problems. If MySpace is that bad, then they should shut down the website and let everyone re-register with them and then watch who registers and who doesn’t, but there’s really no telling what people type down. You could be a 35 year-old man acting to be a 14 year old boy. You never know. I’m just not sure why people in the world have so many problems. Counting sex offenders? How in the world do you do that? I understand why, I’m just not sure how. Well, since their counting sex offenders maybe they need to count how many under aged children are on this site, or how many under cover police officers are on this site. There are more things to look out for then just registered sex offenders.
