MySpace might be blocked

The House of Representatives passed the Deleting Online Predators Act (DOPA) which requires that all public schools and libraries that receive e-rate funding need to prohibit minors from using MySpace and similar sites. This still needs to be passed by the Senate to become a law.

What do you think about this?

I definitely think that's a great idea. Myspace causes way too much trouble. I know tons of people that have a myspace and I don't think it's safe. I have seen the website and I have also seen that almost everyone puts their REAL address and REAL picture. It's no wonder so many bad things are happening. I debated the subject with my sister on one occasion and she told me there was nothing to worry about. I cannot agree, everything points to one direction-bad

I also think its a good idea, becaues it will prevent bad things happening to teens of young ages. So many teens are getting kidnapped or hurt every day. Deleting will really make the internet a safe place to browse.

I don't think that it should be deleted,because teenagers don't have to get hurt behind myspace if teydo't be so stupid and give they're personal information out.
if parents would watch they're children while they're on the internet and stop complaining like it's nothing that they can do about it but knowing that there is something to handle thiis situation.why would yall want to prevent other people from using this web-site because others are'nt being safe enough.the internet could be a safe place even with myspace on the internet.SO PLEASE DON'T DELETE IT BECAUSE I DON'T THINK THAT IT WOULD BE FAIR.
