If providers of social networking sites are failing to protect their minor users, why should they be immune from negligence claims?

At the age of thirteen, Julie Doe established a MySpace page. To circumvent the security procedures that MySpace has set up to protect minors, she lied and said that she was eighteen years old. Peter Solis, a nineteen-year-old male, initiated online contact with Julie, and the two eventually agreed to meet. When they met, Solis sexually assaulted Julie. Julie’s mother then fi led a negligence lawsuit against MySpace, which claimed that it was immune from liability under the Communications Decency Act (CDA). Two courts concluded that MySpace was immune from negligence liability under the CDA, but the case has been appealed to the United States Supreme Court.a
