Summer Reading Assignment:
Library Internet Pornography Filtering Case

The recent decision in American Library Association, Inc. v. United States is getting considerable attention because of the sexiness of the issue it addresses — access in public libraries to Internet pornography.

It is almost 100 pages long and filled with a multitude of technical terminology and legal citations. Don’t let that turn you off. This dissertation, rather opinion, is a must read for every First Amendment enthusiast and cyberspace junkie...[more]

Fears of DCS-1000: VALIDATED

In the grand scheme of things, post 9-11, in a time of government by finger pointing, this week’s story about a glitch with DCS-1000 is not large. The significance of it is.

Don’t know what DCS-1000 is? That’s intentional. Does the name Carnivore ring a stronger memory bell? It should. That’s the FBI computer intelligence program to covertly monitor e-mail of suspects, all preceded by appropriate warrants, all so carefully controlled as to not grab the e-mail of innocents. That’s what we were told. Well, crap called a rose won’t ever smell like one, and Carnivore renamed DCS-1000 to eliminate the ominous connotation of the name will not change the ominous reality of the program...[more]

In a letter to Senate Majority Leader Tom Daschle (D- SD) and Minority Leader Trent Lott (R-MS), the Center for Individual Freedom urged immediate Senate passage of H.R. 1552, the House-approved two-year extension of the Internet tax moratorium.

Compulsory Licensing of Music on the Internet: A Proper Role for Congress?

Traditional interpretations of the rules and regulations governing copyright protections are being subjected to significant new challenges based on their application to the Internet and other developing technologies.

Extension of Internet Tax Moratorium Held Hostage by Our Nation’s Governors

It is unfortunate that our nation’s governors and their supporters on Capitol Hill are holding hostage an extension of the Internet tax moratorium set to expire in October.

"Simplification" Is Not the Easy Answer

The Internet tax moratorium is set to expire in October, and the debate over its extension is being clouded by a coalition of states that fear an eroded tax base, as more consumers shop online.

Center Urges Support for S. 664, the New Economy Tax Fairness Act

In a letter to all members of the Senate Finance Committee, the Center for Individual Freedom expressed its support for S.664, the New Economy Tax Fairness Act, or NET FAIR. NET FAIR is a commonsense solution to a complicated issue, as it simply applies the nexus standards that currently govern catalogue sales to sales over the Internet. Such clear and uniform nexus standards will reinforce the constitutional protections afforded to remote vendors under the Commerce Clause by precluding states from forcing vendors to collect sales taxes for a state in which they do not have a physical presence.
