Should the Obscenity Standard for Internet Speech Be National, or Local?
FindLaw, Julie Hilden, 3.2.2010
Obscenity law has always had weak underpinnings. Now, due to the advent of the Internet, it may be toppled entirely, if courts truly begin to take seriously the due process and First Amendment problems it raises. If it is not toppled, then significant injustices – like the injustice perpetrated in the Paul Little case – will only continue.
