DO YOU WANT GREATER SAFETY AND SECURITY ON THE INTERNET?

Would you like to prevent sex offenders, internet predators, pedophiles and violent criminals from being able to contact or view you or your childrens personal profile, pictures or web pages on the internet?

If such a service was made available do you think online social networking sites like MySpace and Facebook should consider offering it to their members?

Thanks in advance for your comments....

Don't MySpace and Facebook already have mechanisms in place to keep strangers from viewing profiles?

As for the rest, if you don't want it out there in public, don't put it out there in public.......

I think you can opt out and decide who is going to view the profile and who not.
Please check the account preferences.

Is the OP a prelude to a sales spiel?

That was my first thought also. Clearly wasn't asking for advise or suggestions about how to be secure.
