e-Mail, IM Registry for Sex Offenders Proposed
Robert Lemos writes on SecurityFocus:
A bill proposed on Thursday by two U.S. Senators would force Internet service providers to report any online content related to child exploitation they find on their networks and require that sex offenders provide state registries with all their online identifiers.More here.
The bill, dubbed the "Stop the Online Exploitation of Our Children Act," is the brainchild of Republican Senator John McCain of Arizona and Democratic Senator Charles Schumer of New York. The registration of sex offenders online identities exactly matches a request made by MySpace earlier this week; the company hopes that mandating such information will help keep sex offenders out of the MySpace community.
