These sites encourage and enable people to exchange information about themselves, share pictures and videos, and use blogs and private messaging to communicate with friends, others who share interests, and sometimes even the world-at-large. And that’s why it’s important to be aware of the possible pitfalls that come with networking online. aseldow Sun, 14 Dec 2008 23:41:36 +0000 fham cio tech director cipa social networking internet safety safety child safety http://www.latimes.com/news/local/orange/la-me-teens20-2008nov20,0,2416869.story?track=rssThe John D. and Catherine T.

The "amicus" brief, submitted to the Third Circuit court in Philadelphia on behalf of CDT and 17 other groups, argued that COPA places unconstitutional burdens on creators and distributors of legitimate Web content, including websites focusing on sexual identity, health, and art. Other strategies are more effective than COPA at protecting children from online content deemed inappropriate for them, and also impose fewer restrictions on lawful adult speech.
