Title: | A.C.L.U. v. Reno: An Endorsement of Internet Self-Regulation? | Contributor(s): | Lee, Karen (author) | Publication Date: | 1998 | Handle Link: | https://hdl.handle.net/1959.11/3443 | Abstract: | In the landmark decision of 'A.C.L.U. v. Reno' (1997) 138 L. Ed. 2d 874, the United States Supreme Court held unconstitutional key provisions of the Communications Decency Act, which attempted to protect minors from potentially harmful and indecent materials on the Internet. The ruling marks the court's first decision (and is the first judgment of a supreme court worldwide) on the Internet and is a serious setback to American legislators in their attempts to thwart the dissemination of offensive and indecent material via the Internet. | Publication Type: | Journal Article | Source of Publication: | King's College Law Journal, v.9, p. 147-150 | Publisher: | King's College, School of Law | Place of Publication: | United Kingdom | ISSN: | 0961-5768 | Fields of Research (FoR) 2008: | 180199 Law not elsewhere classified 180108 Constitutional Law |
