Texas to require sex offenders to report gamertag?

May 6th, 2009

It seems that a bill currently under review over at the Texas House of Representatives may potentially require sex offenders to make their online game usernames known.

This of course would help protect other gamers from falling victim to a sex offender disguised from an otherwise unmarked online username.

GamePolitics reports that this bill came to existence due to the increasing number of pedophile arrests where the offender met their victim over an online service.

I feel this is a great because it could only serve to further protect those who choose to game online. What do you think?
