Social Media ban, right?

http://news.cnet.com/8301-19518_3-10309421-238.html

This article discusses the cons and invalidity to banning sexual predators from social media sites. It explains that it would offer a false sense of security- because maybe the worst predators are the ones that haven't been caught. The author also says that some people listed as sexual predators are people who have urinated in public or are streakers, or teens who have had consensual sex. The article lists statistics to support their argument. The article only gives one side of the argument, it does not cite any other ideas or arguments to defend their position. The article references other articles but it does not link us to that article.

I can understand both positions. Parents want to know that their children are safe on the internet and they might be all for banning registered sex offenders from social media sites. However, there would be a huge sense of false security because children and parents would feel like they were protected from ALL predators- but they are really only protected from the people registered as offenders.
