As we learned, Phillip Garrido who kidnapped Jaycee Lee Dugard 18 years ago had a blog called Voices Revealed. Blog is hosted on Blogger Network which was sold to Google back in 2003. I was surprised to find that blog is still online and was not shut down. Now everyone are able to read his posts and leave comments. As of today, more than 600 people left comments with outrage and threats on his last post.
I think that Google should take example from some hosting providers and social networks which suspend accounts which belong to people who’s name involved in some sort of media attention especially when it is related to crime. You don’t need people to vandalize something what could be part of investigation, we don’t want Phillip Garrido somehow access his blog and fix some information or even post something, and we don’t need other people with sick mind to go and leave sick comments (as it already happened). As example, Facebook closed profile of Philip Markoffwhen he was accused of being ”Boston Craigslist Killer” and left it for authorities for further investigation.
By the way, my link love goes today to Feministing.com and article Friday Feminist Fuck You: Philip Garrido.
