Supreme Court to Hear Web Porn Case
The Supreme Court announced that it will hear arguments in the Child Online Protection Act, a 1998 law enacted to protect children from material deemed inappropriate online. COPA has never taken effect because it has been tied up in legal battles since it was passed. The ACLU immediately challenged the law on first amendment grounds, and the U.S. Court of Appeals for the 3rd Circuit upheld the ACLU's claim. The case went to the Supreme Cout last year and was sent back down to the 3rd Circuit court, but the High Court decided to render a decision this year.
