MySpace purges 29,000 perverts
Prodded by a gaggle of state attorneys general, MySpace cancelled the accounts of 29,000 people who are registered sex offenders.
The move added volume to the calls for more legislation requiring that sex offenders register their e-mail addresses just as they do their street addresses. One A.G. called the numbers "alarming and appalling."
Social networking Web site MySpace has found and purged more than 29,000 sexual predators using the site, a number described by Connecticut Attorney General Richard Blumenthal as an "exploding epidemic."
The figure is more than quadruple the amount MySpace said it found two months ago. In May, MySpace - which allows users to create their own Web pages - said it banned from its site about 7,000 people discovered to be sex offenders.
