You Must Be 18 Years old to use MySpace…
May 5th, 2006 by AlexYou gotta love this: Tom Reilly, the Massachusetts attorney general, is calling on MySpace to make their minimum age 18.
In all seriousness, I think it’s great that Reilly clearly has nothing better to do with his time than pointless grandstanding, and, hey, this proposal is bound to work. I can see it now: virtual bouncers, checking IDs at the door. There’s just got to be some way to keep people under 18 out of a completely anonymous, faceless environment - after all, in the real world, where people could see how young I was, I was never able to, say, buy alcohol when I was 15 years old.
Oh, no. Wait. Nevermind.
