    14yr old kid sues myspace for $30m

    "A 14-year old is suing myspace for $30 million claiming the site failed to protect her from a 19-year old she met through the site. The suit claims that MySpace doesn't verify a user's identity or age and doesn't do enough to protect users."

    Credit cards can't be used as age verification?

        Nope, not since Visa launched it's visabucks campaign to teach kids about proper money, and credit management.

          if she has someone she needs protection from she should go to the police, not myspace. her parents should be arrested for not watching her good enough.

            if everyone knew about proper money management then the credit card companies would be out of business. anyone with half a clue doesnt pay 18.9% interest.

                So true... just don't tell all the kids spending all their visa bucks on that groovy new cd by Metallica. Wow Ma! look at all this money I have! I'm goin' dancin'! (in redneck voice)

                    That kid should lose ... MySpace shouldn't be hit for this ... fact is, the kid shouldn't have been fucking around talking to boys 5 years older than her ... She should have kept her MySpace friends to her real friends ... hell, I have one and I use it for that ... helps me keep up to date with what REAL friends are doing ... and bands etc that I like ... tours etc ...

                      No offense, but it's the parent's and the child's fault. Morons really.

                      In the end, you decide to meet up with that complete stranger ALONE. You could always arrange a meeting with a friend or somebody to come along.

                      Don't blame somebody else for your ignorance -slash- stupidity. She got fucked 'cause she was slow-witted. She had AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAALLLLL the time to walk away from the whole deal. Meal? Movie? and he got to DRIVE her to the area in question.

                      Seriously now. Sounds like the making of a hillbilly scam.

                        "MySpace is more concerned about making money than protecting children online,"

                        of course they are, its a business. im sure its not that they dont care, but thats her parents job to make sure shes not talking to sexual predators online.

                          I think it should read a "14 yr old's PARENTS are sueing MySpace."

                          Once lawyers smell that more than a dollar is available, they'll come running. I'm just waiting for the day time commercials for attorneys that specialize in MySpace cases.

                                  Myspace will settle out of court with the kid for $26 dollars and a home pregnancy test so she can see if her little skank hoe ass is going to add to her white trash family.

                                      The 14 year old should sue her PARENTS for being dumb asses and not protecting her. WTF was she doing on the computer at 14 talking to strangers? What parent lets their 14 year old go out with some guy she met on myspace?

                                              I blame a judicial system (lawyers and judges) that has created an environment where anyone can sue anyone for anything these days.

                                                      Actually, it should be the social welfare to take the parent to court and take her guardianship away from the child. Yes, it's an extreme measure but it's certainly worth it to protect this 14 year old by providing her with a guardian that can actually 'guard' her.

                                                      I mean geez, I wouldn't be surprised if the mother set this whole thing up just so she can sue Myspace.

                                                              Absolutely Myspace should be sued. She should sue her parents, too, for not supervising her time online. Hell, she should sue her computer for not turning itself off to protect her. Why not sue herself for being a 14yo who wants to act, dress, and look older to attract attention from older guys, and then acting like a naive victim when she gets busted by her parents. /sarcasm

                                                              Seriously, you can block people on myspace, this isn't a matter of her being a victim-it's a matter of her acting like one so she isn't held responsible for the decisions she made in this situation. In light of that, I wouldn't be surprised if she lied about her age, and 19 isn't like a 29 year old, either. They're both teenagers for Christ's sake.

The guy got arrested, that is all that needs to happen. A MySpace representative was not there afterschool and forced her into the guy's car. Getting into his car was a choice SHE made and this choice ultimately reflects back on bad parenting and/or a psychological problem.

                                                                        Think about it. Let's say some guy goes through and searches for blogs of young girls and finds their AIM screen name. The guy contacts her via AIM and tells her to come out to blah blah street at blah PM. She comes out, gets into his car. The guy rapes her. Should AOL cough up 30mil? AIM doesn't require a strict age verification either.

A 13 year old can just as easily of raped her as some 80 year old (and every age in between). When are people going to start taking responsibility for their own actions instead of blaming others. The parents need to be sued for not teaching their kid not to talk to strangers.
