Facebook Agrees to Strict Privacy Standards

Earlier today Facebook, the Pennsylvania Attorney General Tom Corbett along with attorneys general from 48 other states and the District of Columbia today announced that Facebook has agreed to significant steps to better protect children on the social networking site. This agreement appears to be something similar to the one that Myspace had agreed to back in January. The purpose of this new agreement is to better protect children on social networks.

Facebook will be joining the Internet Safety Technical Task Force, which was created after the January agreement with MySpace, to explore and develop age and identity verification tools.
