Yeah those kinda lawsuits are getting way out of hand. People always have to shift the blame, no one takes responsibility for their own actions anymore.

This lawsuit is way above and beyond what's fair but MySpace and NewsCorp do share some responsibility in monitoring their site. The person who should take the most responsibility for their actions is this sexual predator. As for her and her family, one word - therapy. Clearly something is not right in that family.

It's a free site and they do what they can like what was listed in that article. It is not MySpace's responsibility to monitor it's her parents. As far as deserving her day in court, she can absolutely sue the guy that assaulted her but I do not agree at all with the lawsuit against myspace. [/b][/quote]
same

doesnt myspace have a disclaimer like that? well i think the ppl who use myspace are responsible for what they do with it

you gotta draw the line somewhere else like if someone keeps calling someone ppl would sue the phone company... when someone cyberstalks, sue the dude who invented the internet, anything

 

[Sir_Garland]

Right, and if you are a parent that owns a computer and your child as access to the internets then YOU, not anyone else, are responsible for what goes across and comes into your computer. What's myspace supposed to do? If the monitored everything that went across then people would be upset and suing them for invading their privacy. Where do you draw the line?

 

[Bloodlessr]

I agree, privacy is a big deal, especially on the internet. Myspace cannot be blamed. Soon they will be blaming computer makers for suppling us with access to the internet, where something bad may happen. :lol:

 

[Sir_Garland]

:lol: Yes. I blame Bush. He should be making sure this stuff doesn't happen.

 

[Bloodlessr]

Haha. Clearly he needs to be making sure nothing bad EVER happens!!!! :lol:

 

[Sir_Garland]

:lol: Exactly. :wub: 's Garret.

Oh, he's trying.

He needs to make sure he has his bib on, though. Might make a mess of EVERYTHING!

This ^ guy's up the street from me.

edit to add that it's from FOX NEWS so no one out there can argue that it's liberal bullshit.

 

[leone]

I wonder how many bs taxes consumers will have to pay if that hits the market. <_<

 

[dascoot]

Right? But fuck it, who cares, tax me up! Can't be as much as it costs to fill my effing tank every week. h34r:

 

[sketchyrx]

As long as the tax money was used appropriately. Oh wait that'll never happen.

My daughter wouldn't be the fucking stupid. I would have to meet all of her boy friends and tell them some things. h34r:

It's not a liberal scam but a physics scam. I called the company 10+ times, finally got his assistant on the line.... he went on an on about the temperature of sun blah blah...When I asked the question, how much electricity does it take to create one unit volume of gas, vs, how much energy you get out of burning that volume of gas...(test of scam :nerd: ) he coughed, ahemed, and said he'll sent me an email. Hasn't heard from him in three weeks

 

[dascoot]

GAHHH NOOOOO don't tell me this!!

 

[leone]

Maybe he's not supposed to give out the answer to that. Like the Coke people can't tell you what's in their soda.

You're right, it is sick and if it should ever happen to my daughter I would be so sad and I would definately be there for her to help her through it but I wouldn't allow her to blame someone else who has no control over her or the guy's actions and I would probably feel damn guilty that I didn't control my child's internet access enough to protect them from such things. I would probably never ever get over that feeling of guilt but I would do my best to help her through her problems and I would educate her better so she knows how to prevent this from ever happening again.
