MySpace to Share Sex Offender Data
May 22, 2007 - 8:50AM

Faced with legal demands from several state attorneys general, MySpace.com said Monday it will immediately begin sharing data on the registered sex offenders it has identified and removed from the popular social networking website.

MySpace balked last week when attorneys general from eight states demanded it provide data on how many registered sex offenders are using the site and where they live.

The company said federal privacy laws required the states to file subpoenas or other legal requests before it could release the information. MySpace general counsel Mike Angus said company officials met with North Carolina Attorney General Roy Cooper and Connecticut Attorney General Richard Blumenthal last week to sort out the details of those requests.

"We have zero tolerance for those creeps. We don't want them on our sites.

:beer:

I wish this zero tolerance level was applied to the pedo sites as well. They should all be banned since there primary theme is underaged children. JMO
