MySpace will offer technology that keeps sexual predators out
The personal safety of it's users and the protection of multimedia copyrights are the two highest priorities for social networking giant MySpace. And to protect it's users, Myspace has teamed with Sentinel Tech Holding, an expert in background verification, to add a new feature to the website. The feature, called the "Sentinel Safe" profile searcher, will let MySpace easily search and destroy the profiles of registered sex offenders. This is to prevent those same sex offenders from seducing, kidnapping, and molestering MySpace users. MySpace says that there are roughly 550,000 registered sex offenders, all of which need to be kept away from MySpace. Sentinel Safe will be the first service that has access to the sex offender registries of 46 states.

This is a nice idea but they'll still get in if they want to.
