Library Web Suit Revived

SF Gate has a story on a woman whose 12-year-old son downloaded pornography at a CA public library, has reinstated her lawsuit that would require parental consent for minors to access the Internet at libraries.

\”We have to do a little more to protect children from themselves than to protect adults from themselves,\”


UPDATE from SF Gate. Hearing Was Held.

A panel of three justices of the 1st District Court of Appeal in San Francisco did not indicate when or which way it would rule. But one justice noted that a Virginia library was subjected to a successful suit when it blocked pornographic access and was ordered to reinstate full access.
