  • inactive, on 03/24/2008, -0/+35Amateurs.
  • Inv4der, on 03/24/2008, -1/+30My thought as well, iam online 5-8 hours daily. 50% is work, 25% is digg, rest is pr0n.
  • Celeron, on 03/24/2008, -1/+30Those chicks are hot. Hope that doesn't mean I'm a pervert. :)
  • ed3r, on 03/24/2008, -2/+31And if they weren't on the internet, they would be doing what hmm? ... TV most likely, and we all know how great that is.

    Also: "Kids know more about the technologies than adults. They are using them more and they understand how to use them."
    THE TECHNOLOGIES, THEY KNOW HOW TO USE THEM.
  • CAPITALLETTERS, on 03/24/2008, -0/+21That's how much time I spend on the internet per day.
  • Jaziek, on 03/24/2008, -0/+21HOLY CRAP THEY KNOW MORE ABOUT THE TECHNOLOGIES THAN WE DO!! DESTROY THEM!! BURN THEM!!
  • GDOG5, on 03/24/2008, -1/+22"With millions left to surf the web on their own, 57 per cent of children have seen online pornography, most of it accidentally in the form of "pop-up" adverts."

    I totally agree. These kids are being subject to advertising porn. This is unacceptable, we must protect our kids from these rip off artists and show them where all the free porn sites are!
  • machocheese34, on 03/24/2008, -1/+21why don't you have a seat over there...
  • getrealnow, on 03/24/2008, -2/+22"As the Daily Mail revealed last week, one simple suggestion will be that computers are positioned in shared areas of homes, such as living rooms, rather than bedrooms. That would allow parents to monitor the internet sites being viewed and video games being played by their children"

    ***** THAT I LIKE PORN
  • woofers07, on 03/24/2008, -0/+19you're totally gonna have a seat over there.

    (I would too though)
  • inactive, on 03/24/2008, -0/+18i would toss their salad
  • Jenadae, on 03/24/2008, -1/+18No, just a pedo....
  • blakeinstereo, on 03/24/2008, -0/+16you haven't been on the internet long enough
  • moletimer, on 03/24/2008, -1/+16I don't know why Daily Mail articles get submitted and dugg up on Digg. They are some of the most biased, retarded articles on the web.
  • inactive, on 03/24/2008, -1/+15MMmm I'd lick that ass for sure.
  • inactive, on 03/24/2008, -0/+14i wasn't gonna do anything i swear, i just wanted to help her with her homework
  • redogishere, on 03/24/2008, -1/+15the people who wrote this are just jealous because they didnt have porn to look at when they were 16

    WHOS WITH ME
  • inactive, on 03/24/2008, -3/+17Those girls are like probably the hottest girls i've ever ***** seen, wow.
  • aaapples, on 03/24/2008, -3/+16Seconded.
  • inactive, on 03/24/2008, -1/+14i'd lick both their asses
  • Jaziek, on 03/24/2008, -2/+14"leaving their mobile phones on all night in case they receive a text message." ... and the problem with doing that is...............
  • phpchris, on 03/24/2008, -2/+13Because in most stories that hit the front page, there's usually someone who comments on either how it got there with so few diggs, or how it got there with no comments.
  • DynamicSurge, on 03/24/2008, -2/+13The FBI will be coming to my door. I just clicked the link, might as well use the picture usefully.
  • dndbakies, on 03/24/2008, -1/+12Seeing as how I've actually order Pizzas With cheese sticks and garlic sauce from Chuck wagon twice

    2 The inretnet has so far cooked me 2 dinners.
  • nappymonster, on 03/24/2008, -0/+1120 hours? Is that all?
  • MoofTheStoof, on 03/24/2008, -0/+10Yeah, I prefer my kids' time being spent on the interactive internet over the passive TV. There's dodgy content on both, but at least the internet is a bit more of an intellectual workout.
  • hardcorestar, on 03/24/2008, -2/+12And this so called generation that thrives on the internet will do things that previous generations could only dream of, a world without digg? I would want no part in it
  • DiggLive, on 03/24/2008, -1/+11I'd wreck those two.

    *takes a seat over there*
  • chibimmy, on 03/24/2008, -1/+11This comment brought you by Irony.
  • getrealnow, on 03/24/2008, -2/+12ANOTHER 20 HOUR JOKE LOL
  • Ignitedude, on 03/24/2008, -1/+11"leaving their mobile phones on all night in case they receive a text message."

    And this is new?
  • moletimer, on 03/24/2008, -0/+9These people need Firefox.
  • SSUK, on 03/24/2008, -1/+10According to the daily mail, we should all be dead by now, all poor and living on the moon... While dead. ***** them.
  • moletimer, on 03/24/2008, -1/+10Myspace is a ***** that needs wiping out.
  • sbraidley, on 03/24/2008, -1/+10I spend about 7 hour son a school night normally and more at weekends as theres so much on the internet you can never be bored.
  • inactive, on 03/24/2008, -0/+8srsly? google more.
  • SSUK, on 03/24/2008, -0/+8So, it's some how worse for kids to spend 20 hours on a PC, reading, learning, socialising, instead of sitting infront of a TV, watching mind-numbing American sitcoms and ***** programs which are in abundance on TV, especially on freeview and Channel 4 and 5? Oh right, because there isn't porn on TV... Oh wait, Freeview channel 97, Television X/REDHOT, which has a 10 minute free preview every day.

    ***** the Daily Mail, scare mongering middle class *****.
  • theHive, on 03/24/2008, -1/+9Totally what I was thinking. The last 2 days I've only been on the internet (thankfully not much of that has been on myspace).
  • NinjaPirateDude, on 03/24/2008, -1/+8im 14 and honestly use the internet for everything i could possibly use it for, such as entertainment, communication with friends who are away and keeping up with the news. there is nothing wrong with kids being exposed to a fair community where it doesn't matter who you are, people will still see your opinion.

    oh and i only use myspace as a time-waster.......plus its pretty crap.
  • Aensland, on 03/24/2008, -1/+8Time to use MySpace's search function...
  • Katnap, on 03/24/2008, -1/+8Agreed, it's a terrible news source. I'm surprised they didn't try to blame it on immigrants.
  • inactive, on 03/24/2008, -0/+7Duh. Your math is wrong.
