Myspace sued by people with no sense of irony.

I hope they win. Then I hope the daughter sues the parents. You know the people  that took on the responsibility to protect their  kid.    Seemingly they don’t. 

Family’s lawsuit claims MySpace responsible for daughter’s assault

Gregory Coleman, a lawyer for the girl’s family, said the law only gives MySpace a “limited shield” from liability.

“It has a responsibility to (protect) children,” he said.

The girl, identified as Julie Doe in court papers, was 13 when she created a MySpace profile in 2005. MySpace requires users to be at least 14, but the girl misrepresented herself as 18 years old.

    remember back in the days when it was the parents’ responsibility to police their children, and not the interwebs?
