The Historical Origins of Internet

Doing this once isn't impossible. What makes it impossible is that 50 million of the sites up are changing everyday and you would have to do it all the time, all day, everyday, and there is no way any committee could keep up with that. These groups should have thought about what they want on the Internet before it got so saturated. Most people didn't know that the Internet was going to be such a huge structure in everyday life but they have let it get too big to make decisions about censorship now. .

             Another argument that has arisen from the Internet discussion is whether or not it is legal to censor the Internet. The first amendment says, " Congress shall make no law.abridging freedom of speech", but does this fall into the category of the Internet? No. When the constitution was written, there was no way they could have foreseen and institute that has such an impact on the United States, and since the Internet does, a new verse should be added to the constitution that ends the debate once and for all. There have been books written in the past that are offensive but they were much easier to regulate because they were not being distributed as quickly as the internet puts out sites. There is no reason, for any excuse, that there should be a site, that shows anyone who views it, how to make a pipe bomb. Sites like that serve no purpose except for people too more easily access terrorist material. .

             The Internet was created for the transaction of information, not for the joy use of idiotic people who really have no business being on the on the Internet in the first place. When people sign on to use the Internet, they don"t want to be bombarded with advertisements for sexually explicit sites. It really makes it an unpleasant trip through cyberspace and one that no one should have to put up with. Even if the sites are going to remain up, advertising them should, and can, be regulated. This is where the liability of the Internet Service Provider (ISP), or any other third party, comes into question.
