WALLET POP – Nov 10 – Social
networking site, Tagged, Inc. must pay $250,000 in an agreement
reached with the Texas Attorney General. The site was accused of
deceiving users into providing access to their address books. Once
access was granted, the site sent messages that appeared to come from
the user to all of their contacts, duping them into signing up for
the service and further spreading the scheme. Tagged must now clearly
disclose their use of its members' personal information and enact new
privacy features. FULL ARTICLE @ WALLET POP
