Study Says Teens Safer On MySpace Than Parents Think
According to the report, 40 percent of teens had set their profiles to private; a setting that only allows friends to view their page.
Of the remaining 1,500 profiles not set to private, only 4 percent listed instant messaging contact information and 1 percent listed their email addresses.
“By and large, kids were very responsible,” Hinduja said. “They were being vigilant and being wise in terms of what they were revealing online.”
Anyone who’s ever actually worked with/on a social site will be unsurprised. Hysterical fear-mongers will likely refuse to take notice.
