SF Gate has This Editorial on the filtering hoo haa, sent in by Bob Cox.
They say that CIPA will do what no other ratings system (eg. MPAA) has tried to do, It doesn\’t just say what\’s good or bad, it will just block your access to the \”bad\”.
This article makes more than a few good arguments against CIPA, example, CIPA effectively makes public Internet usage controlled by corporations.
\”For the federal government to put pressure on schools and libraries to filter the Internet is far more insidious than the MPAA or other rating schemes for entertainment media, because the Internet is far more than just an entertainment medium.\”
