You know how everyone always makes fun of MySpace and says it's just full of creeps and pedophiles and the underage girls they prey on? Well, it turns out it's kind of true, and as more and more cases popped of involving teens meeting shady dudes on the site and then subsequently in real life, MySpace decided to do something about it.

They spent the last two years cleaning out 90,000 registered sex offenders from their system, which was 40,000 more than they said they knew of. People are stunned at this number, and that so many were online in the first place. But some are looking to capitalize on MySpace's issues, namely Facebook:

Facebook's Chief Privacy Officer Chris Kelly said in a statement it was working with Blumenthal's office but said the site had "not yet had to handle a case of a registered sex offender meeting a minor through Facebook."

"Unlike MySpace or other social networking sites, Facebook has always enforced a real-name culture and has developed and deployed social verification and powerful privacy rules that allow people to interact in a safer and more trusted environment," the statement said.

Ouch, deep burn. "Real name" culture huh? Does that explain why I'm Facebook friends with four different versions of Megan Fox right now?

This is a step forward for MySpace, like it was when they cracked down on the millions of hostile spam profile flooding the system, but they still have a long way to go to make their site shady-free. But that's largely impossible, seeing as shadiness is often just human nature.
