From the supplier: The Supreme Court's decision to strike down provisions of the Communications Decency Act (CDA) related to pornography represents only a small victory for free speech advocates. This ruling leaves many questioned unanswered about what is allowable under standards of public decency. The court seems to see the Internet as less intrusive than broadcast media, which would leave cyberspace free to exist in a less regulated environment. It is hard to apply traditional freedom-of-speech precedents to electronic publishing.
