Default Prevent MySpace assaults.

The members of MySpace rely heavily on the use of detailed “profiles” to find and meet others with similar interests. Although the user has primary control over WHAT information IS ultimately displayed, most minors are only too eager to provide as much personal information as possible. Despite the fact that inclusion of telephone numbers, street addresses, and last names in a member’s profile are forbidden under the site’s TOS, age and city/state of residence information is AUTOMATICALLY populated into a member’s profile, based on the birthday and zip code fields required for completion of the initial membership form.

All someone needs to find you is your city and name. They can do the rest.

BEWARE!

The safest thing to do is to just not have a MySpace profile or set it to private and only accept your real life friends as MySpace friends.
