Mandatory Website Labelling Bill In Congress Already

re: Government Protection of the Children

Well I disagree. Government required labelling, however well intentioned, violates our freedom of speech.... specifically how we are allowed to say things and express ourselves.

And that is all such a law would accomplish, because we all know that the law would not extend to any of the countless websites outside the United States.

What ought to be advocated as a solution is the superior solution of using filtering software, as it does not limit its effectiveness to within the United States, nor does it abridge our civil rights.

Does it abridge the civil rights of movies to make them use G, PG and X ratings for their movies?

True, it's not mandatory that they use them, BUT everyone knows that if you don't, your movie will basically get blacklisted and fail miserably. I think that's how it should be in the adult business.

Meaningless or not, effective or not, ratings represent something we should all be striving for.
