i think fox news did bring up a big issue, and that is the vulnerability of nintendo ds' picachat to potential pedaphilers. Unlike the computers with internet, the nintendo ds is a portable item that children take to schools, vacations, and places outdoors. Basically places where the parent doesnt have the option to overlook exactly what their children are doing on their ds. It is not like the computer with internet at home where it is easy for a parent to peer over their childs shoulder to see what they are browsing. In addition, the parents probably think the ds is just a gameboy, which is an item meant for gaming only. If anything, nintendo should really create some sort of parential protection program on the ds to have settings for parents to filter who can picachat to their child. Kind of like what netnanny does or other child protective software for computers.
