Wow, this is a very bold move considering these 90,000 were probably about 50% of their active user base.

"Sex offenders using social networking site!" Uhm... has anyone done the math, and compared the **per capita** usage rates of both sex-offenders and non-sex-offenders???

Besides being ineffectual as they can simply register new accounts (as the guy above me noticed) what good does this really do?

What evidence is there that all 90K of these guys were using myspace to solicit? There isn't any. Suddenly these (admittedly creepy) guys can't even use social networks to keep track of legitimate, age appropriate friends and relatives?

If they start messaging minors for sex, that is a violation of the terms of service and their accounts should be terminated, but just signing up isn't wrong. Leave the poor bastards alone.

I don't use pedospace so I wouldn't know, but can't one just create a new profile? I'm sure people already have multiple accounts set-up.
