CDT Challenges Pennsylvania's Net Blocking Law - CDT, together with the ACLU of Pennsylvania and Plantagenet Inc., a Pennsylvania ISP, today filed a constitutional challenge to a Pennsylvania child pornography law that results in the blocking of wholly innocent Web pages. The challenge also seeks a restraining order stopping the Pennsylvania Attorney General 's practice of imposing secret censorship orders on ISPs. CDT's lawsuit argues that by blocking Net content - including innocent websites - without notice to the publishers and without adequate judicial oversight, the Pennsylvania law violates the due process and free speech protections of the Constitution.
