Dangers of Nintendo DS Chat
WITI-TV, MILWAUKEE -- Nintendo's DS hand-held gaming system was a hit during the holidays. However, it's also attracting some darker elements. FOX 6's Brad Hicks examines how your son and daughter could get caught up in the range of a child molester.[/quote]
And oh dear god you've gotta be kidding me.
1) Who uses a Pictochat? Most sane people will use it to play games. Or cheat on tests. Frankly, I never find anyone on.
2) Does it really have 300ft range? If so, that'll be cool.
3) The part about driving in the car with a pedo driving next to you. Like, what the hell is that? So, a pedo's going to see a kid playing a Nindento DS in a car, and decided to take out their DS to chat with the kid, [i]while they're driving[/i]?
Give me a break. This fearmongering has got to stop.
