Now I came across a Facebook group asking people to boycott this website.

Formspring.com, if you don't know, is a site where people are supposed to ask you questions and you can do so anonymously. Needless to say there were some...a-holes?

There's a story of a girl, who was picked on via this site countless times. to the point where she took her own life.

Now people formed a group to ask people to boycott Formspring. The group is below.

For the life of me I can't join this group. What it's doing is blaming Formspring for this girl's suicide when all the site did was give teste-less d-bags an avenue to call her names without consequence.

My question is, should sites like Formspring and Facebook be blamed for the actions of others?

Super

I think the dumbass victims should be blamed.

The girl is to be blamed. If she didn't like what everyone was saying she didn't need to be checker her formspring.

A way to filter out morons I guess.

I LOVE formspring.
I enjoy reading all the comments people make anonymously.

Anyway, it's certainly not formspring's fault that she took her own life.

The girl lived a few towns over from mine.  My cousin apparently knew her.  It's kind of sicking to see her pictures being posted on 4chan though (but as she was an hero, I had a feeling that it would come eventually).
