MySpace Losing Ads Over Porn Stars
I have a feeling this might be the beginning of the end of porn/adult material being allowed on myspace....I will tell you this though, if myspace would create a feature that allowed me to "dump" any user under 18 I would do it on a daily basis

MySpace.com has quickly become the malt shop for today?s teens -- but, unlike Al?s place in ?Happy Days,? this virtual ?hang out? is also frequented by unsavory characters who are after our kids. What most teens see as just a fun place to connect with friends has become a sexual predator?s and pornographer?s playground.
As The New York Times reported on May 27, the site?s content has become so skanky that even some corporate advertisers, including Weight Watchers and T-Mobile, are either pulling their ads from MySpace or threatening to do so.
The pages of sex-film stars like Jenna Jameson and Tera Patrick are quickly becoming popular with America?s teens as evidenced by the thousands of ?friends? -- other MySpace users who ask for full access to a user?s page. Those pages, in turn, link to the stars? own homepages, which are often replete with explicit pornographic images.
Some of the stars? ?friends? are as young as 14. Others are undoubtedly younger -- one need only state their age, no ID or proof required. Most of the linked porn sites post a simple warning that says something like, ?Click here to enter if you?re over 18,? and that?s it.
