children safety on the Internet

The European Commission found that only two social networking websites make profiles of young users private by default. In the course of the test of 14 social networks it was found that only Bebo and MySpace have default settings to make minors' profiles more private. The test was meant to check if the sites were complying with the E.U.'s Safer Social Networking Principles, a self-regulatory agreement that they signed up to in 2009.
