For once, i am agreeing with the views of the american government. Tell me this; Setting aside the potential dangers of places like MySpace, what is wrong with children not being allowed access to these types of social networking sites in public libraries and schools? You go to school to learn and use the computers for RESEARCH purposes, NOT socialising with people over the internet, i can't begin to count the number of times people in my year, when i was at school, used the computers for talking to others when they should have been working. You go to public libraries to read and borrow books and use the computers available for research etc, not talking to other people. You can always tell when someone is talking to another on the internet because now and again they will start laughing because their friend said something funny. Very annoying.
