More of a "terms of use". violation would prolly end up in suspending/deleting accounts. But I doubt they'd hire a legal team to prove that you are not in fact, say 23 yo... |

 Coolness: 150465 | Nope.
the site's [Myspace] terms of service technically require all users to provide "truthful and accurate" registration information. Since use of the site [Myspace] is conditional on acceptance of those terms, prosecutors argued, use in violation of those terms constituted "unauthorized access" to MySpace's computers. And "unauthorized access" violated a provision of the federal Computer Fraud and Abuse Act intended to apply to computer hackers.
This, of course, is all thanks to Lori Drew, made famous from her stint on Myspace when she created an account under a false name, which led to the death of Megan Meier, who committed suicide after being told "the world would be better off without you." I'm sure you're familiar with the story. Anyways, the legality of breaking this law, and punishment that follows is still in murky water... But believe me, this woman is in big shit, and this sets a precedent which can affect us all on the interweb. It's all in there somewhere... [ arstechnica.com ] [ blog.wired.com ] [ www.law.cornell.edu ] Update » Mico wrote on Fri Dec 5, 2008 @ 9:16pm "Unauthorized access" is a mere misdemeanor—and that's all the jury was willing to find Drew guilty of. But the charge can be elevated to a felony if that access is "in furtherance" of some other illicit act, whether a crime or a civil tort. So, for instance, upload a few minutes of copyrighted video to YouTube, and you've violated the site's terms of service while simultaneously committing copyright infringement. Congratulations, you're a felon! |

Yup, ever since the whole thing with that girl that killed herself because of a fake myspace account, it's a violation of the Computer Fraud and Abuse Act to put false information on ANY website that asks for information, wether it's got a Terms of Service or not. |
