Recording fake names is absolutely no measure for protecting CompuServe children. Admit it.< >My point is that there is no area on the Internet that is more safe than any other, as far as protecting children goes. This is a no-brainer Dave. CompuServe can pretend all it likes but it isn't anymore family orientated than any other service. Admit it.< >Usually, volunteers are not allowed to perform critical/sensitive functions. However, CompuServe lets STRANGERS monitor children. That's a BIG problem.< >Dave, volunteers who provide critical services, such as handle child-safety measures, need to be screened by CompuServe and be supervised, else these STRANGERS can be doing who knows what with children on the Internet! CompuServe dropped the ball on another issue.< Darnell <No_Reply@Needed.com> wrote: <<Please stop cross-posting to chi.internet....>> Darnell, okay. I'll keep chi.internet off of future cross-post lists. But you have to admit, CompuServe is dead wrong on this issue. -- The Liberator E-Mail: news@liberator.net Web Site: http://www.liberator.net/ Need a reliable and inexpensive Internet provider?
