The Supreme Court today struck down the "Child Online Protection Act" as an
unconstitutional government attempt to censor free speech on the Internet. "Today’s
ruling from the Court demonstrates that there are many less restrictive ways to protect
children without sacrificing communication intended for adults," the ACLU said. "By
upholding the order stopping Attorney General Ashcroft from enforcing this questionable
federal law, the Court has made it safe for artists, sex educators, and web publishers to
communicate with adults about sexuality without risking jail time."
