If you mean people's accounts disappear on Myspace, yes, that obviously happens. If you mean people physically disappear aka get kidnapped or killed due to Myspace, that is true as well. But you have to be lacking in common sense for that to happen--most of the time it's giving personal information (ex: home address or phone) to strangers online that leads to people's general disappearance.

No one actually owns the Internet, and no single person or organization controls the Internet in its entirety. \n\nMore of a concept than an actual tangible entity, the Internet relies on a physical infrastructure that connects networks to other networks. \n\n\nThere are many organizations, corporations, governments, schools, private citizens and service providers that all own pieces of the infrastructure, but there is no one body that owns it all. \n\nThere are, however, organizations that oversee and standardize what happens on the Internet and assign IP addresses and domain names, such as the National Science Foundation, the Internet Engineering Task Force, ICANN, InterNIC and the Internet Architecture Board.\n\nSEE below for more details:\n\nhttp://www.webopedia.com/DidYouKnow/Internet/2002/IETF.html\n\nhttp://www.webopedia.com/DidYouKnow/Internet/2002/ICANN.html\n\nhttp://www.webopedia.com/DidYouKnow/Internet/2002/InterNIC.html\n\nWe must define what ownership means? In simple terms it means that what is "mine" is not "yours," what is "ours" is not "theirs," whoever "they" are, and what is "private" is not "public." It is a right to control, manipulate, monitor, exclude, include, patrol or govern. More than just something of value that you can purchase or sell, it is a legal right to assert sovereignty if you are a nation-state or to exert autonomy if you are an individual or organized group. \n\nAnd since that does not apply to the internet as a whole, it is not owned by anyone.\n\nThank God for that! :)

it might have, if tom hadn't sold it to rupert murdoch.  (google him: it's scary.)  he's the guy who owns fox media.  if you have a myspace account, you might have noticed that most of the ads on there have turned into pro-bush propaganda.  (clicking-games like: help bush out-knit bin laden, or: help the texas cowboy drill to oil faster than the arab).  murdoch would shut down anything that started to get "out of hand", or to draw too much attention.  i've heard of some discontents having their sites edited since murdoch took over.\n\nwe need an open-minded, independent alternative to myspace.

In order to view a private myspace, you must be accepted by the person as one of their friends.  It is just a security feature that is enacted by Myspace.

to date there is not a myspace tracker that works.  Read Tom's page and he will tell you that himself.

Of course not!!! It's what a very very few people have done on MySpace that gave it a bad name, slightly, among the people who are out of the loop anyways on inernet issues. They said the same stuff about AIM. before that, it was email. It's always going to be something. I mean, do we bann bathrooms in certain public parks because a few times a year they bust pervs there? People need to get a grip.

It is fake. The ONLY one that works is Profilesnoop.com, but myspace has effectively blocked all code coming from that site stating that it infringes on personal privacy.

Spam site. It's just another social networking site like MySpace, only the company who created the site made it for the purpose of gathering email addresses only. THey don't really care about the members.

I don't think so.  I consider it an invasion of their privacy.  Albeit it is a public site, it is not a teacher's responsibility to determine what the students are doing outside of school, what they are into, who they chat with, what they do in their free time.  If the teacher suspects anything, based on class performance or actions, then they should be informing the parent(s) or guardian or the next responsible party, not trying to play detective.  If it is a college student, and their grades are slipping, and they are missing classes, they will have to take responsibility for their actions and the results that their actions bring about.  Consider this…….if you heard about a party or concert they were going to, should the teacher go to make sure they are doing the right thing?  \n\nHOWEVER – if the use of MySpace is happening while in class.  Have the school IS or IT area pull a history of the computer, or the network usage and prove it.  You can deal with it at that time directly with the student as a misuse of school resources.

Go to your principal and demand that they need to unblock myspace.  Don't forget to tell them that your patents pay their salary.

Delete it. That's what I did. Now I have so much free time to do things that I want to do, not being controlled by a website. I know it may be hard because you have like a million friends, but its so worth it. Myspace takes over people's lives, don't let it control yours.
