Facebook Panic Buttons---Is this a good idea???

Is this a good idea???

Facebook urged to add panic button at meeting with Ceop
Facebook has been urged to add "panic buttons" to its pages by the head of a British child protection agency at a meeting in Washington DC.  Facebook has been criticised by the Child Exploitation and Online Protection (Ceop) centre for not having "panic buttons" on every page.  Ceop's director Jim Gamble said the matter was urgent after the murder of a teenager by a man she met on the site. Facebook has said it takes the issue seriously and welcomed the meeting.  Speaking after the four-hour meeting, Mr Gamble said Facebook was "one small step from doing the right thing" but had not agreed to his demands outright.
