Do you think the website MySpace should be cut from the public ?

i dont think everyone who is associated with myspace should be punished because of the basic stupidity or immorality of others. myspace should be treated as a simple website where people meet new friends and reminisce with old ones but instead it is used by perverts and young people who want to explore things they know they shouldnt. for me myspace is the only way i can communicate with most of my out-of-state friends since im an army brat who moves around alot so i need it. people just need to teach their children how to stay safe. we also need to find and keep perverts off the streets.

No, it's not a bad website. Like anywhere else on the internet, you just have to use common sense when it comes to talking to other people and be cautious about the personal information that you give out about yourself online. \n\nAlso, parents need to pay more attention to what their children are doing and who they're talking to online. I feel that it's the parent's responsibility to teach their children online safety and keep them away from online predators.

it might have, if tom hadn't sold it to rupert murdoch.  (google him: it's scary.)  he's the guy who owns fox media.  if you have a myspace account, you might have noticed that most of the ads on there have turned into pro-bush propaganda.  (clicking-games like: help bush out-knit bin laden, or: help the texas cowboy drill to oil faster than the arab).  murdoch would shut down anything that started to get "out of hand", or to draw too much attention.  i've heard of some discontents having their sites edited since murdoch took over.\n\nwe need an open-minded, independent alternative to myspace.

because it has become a haven for paedophiles\n(I don't hate myspace, I just don't like the idea of perverts taking advantage of kids.)

i think everyone should be allowed to keep in contact with their friends.  from 14 year olds to 40 year olds.  obessed: yes.  but that is what keeps some people going, they need something to keep their life going [ex: ipod, friends, pop, etc] some people pick myspace.

This is not a good idea.  You should not be friends with people you don't know.  MySpace wasn't meant to be a popularity contest, just a convenient way to stay in touch with people you ACTUALLY know or once knew.

A lot of schools are seeing My Space as form of danger. They fear what they do not understand. Since the news has profiled MySpace as something of trouble, your school has probably made it so that you can not view MySpace. There is no way around this unless you know your way around a computer and the network... Sorry.

its there for a reason then. \nif the school uses it then there purpose is so stop the usage of the internet for wasted acitivty like myspace etc.. since people who pay tax for the school\ntax payers dont want student spending there tax money on people using eg myspace, wait until you get home. \nthere is no way arround it not without admin rights

Yeah, I think that is an invasion of privacy! I just heard that my old High School is doing that now, to see what kids are doing and checking to see if they ditch school or what not. My younger sisters friend actually got suspended for something he had on his Myspace...I thought that was ridiculous! Just make your profile private...they can't even look at it unless you add them!

No, i dont think its bad.  I think it causes problems because people dont know how to use it. If you dont want stalkers, dont put up your name and address. If you dont wanna end up talking to a pervo 85 yr. old acting 15.... dont talk to people you dont know. If you dont want people looking at your shit.... make it private.  I think its rediculous that people complain about something they can prevent. If you dont like that your 10 yr old has a page that everyone in the universe can see...... then take a step back and think about why your letting a ten year old have one to begin with.

WHO DOESN'T HAVE A STINKING MYSPACE? ACTUALLY, A LOT OF PPL DONT HAVE EM =O ^_^ But i do heh. I know i need to get a life. Dont need to tell it to me again. -_-\n\nP.S. don't mind me. im juss weird and hyper sumtimes.

I AGREE!!! =D\n\nI don't see how anyone can be so addicted to a website. I'm not even that addicted to programming. There's something wrong there.\n\nA lot of the young girls think they're so "cool" because they're dating someone they don't even know. It's probably someone that is 45-years-old, waiting for a young "target."\n\nI know a girl (17 though) that devotes her entire day for MySpace. She even plays sick to stay home from school, just to get on MySpace -- ALL...DAY...LONG!\n\nI don't understand it. I really don't. It's gotten to the point where I want to deface the MySpace website. To get on there and actually find out how stupid some of the people are. And how desperate they are.\n\nMySpace is NOT addicting to me. I think it's pretty stupid. People run popularity contests and try to see who can have the most friends.\n\nHell, they don't even talk to half the people on their Friends list. They just have them, well, to have them. They don't know who half the people are, and they probably just thought that person's profile was "cool".\n\nI think they're ALL stupid. I don't care whose it is. Then, these posers making "fan pages" for music artists, actors/actresses, etc. It's all just a big joke.

I don't think they should be banned. I don't know how they would get it all under control though without "checking id's at the door." I don't think it's right that the kids can lie and that ANYONE is able to get to their myspace page. Your parents weren't lying when they told you there are weirdos out there. And believe it or not, people CAN pretend that they are something they are not. There should be a way to let teens be on the internet, but actually be safe from all the freaks and the fakers out there.

No, it should not be censored. Internet is one of the freedoms of expression and, quite frankly, it is a person's fault if he or she accidentally entered a site which the person does not like!

well that kind defeats the whole purpose of myspace does'nt it?  I seriously doubt that this is possible.  If you want a private web site, build one...

I agree with you, it isn't bad at all.  It's just people who make it seem bad.  I mean, the whole idea of myspace is to keep in touch with friends and make new friends.  No harm in that.  But, then you get stupid kids and perverted people on there that mess everything up and make it seem bad and all
