Watching Sex Offenders on the Web

Texas lawmakers are working to pass a bill that would better track the internet activities of registered sex offenders.

The measure hopes to make chat rooms and social networking sites safer for kids by requiring sex offenders to provide internet information…like usernames, e-mails and other info that will let law enforcement track a sex offenders activity on the web.
