MySpace?
This post brought to you by the letter 'R'.
This story showed up on Slashdot. A 14-year-old girl and her mother are suing MySpace to the tune of $30 million for failing to protect the girl from meeting a 19-year-old male who apparently sexually assaulted her.
So let's start a discussion. Y'alls first. Is this lawsuit frivolous? Is MySpace responsible for the actions of its members? Or does there need to be a certain level of security involved in social networking sites, or perhaps even the internet in general?
