MySpace.com's security officer seems to think so, MySpace won't turn over names of sex offenders:
To be honest, I'm not sure what to make of MySpace.com's Electronic Communications Privacy Act argument. Seems a bit frivilous, perhaps I'll have to look at it a bit more, but it doesn't seem that they AG's are asking for intercepted information.
What is probably true, however, is that they don't have to turn over records without a subpoena, and they may be using this as a reason not to do so. I may have to look at Myspace's terms of use as well.
