States want to require obscenity or adult content filters on devices and identify consumers who remove them
Now Electronic Frontier Foundation warns that up to 15
state legislatures (includes Virginia) are entertaining an HTTA (or human
trafficking prevention act) which (unlike even FOSTA and SESTA) doesn’t even address
trafficking.
Instead it would require device manufacturers to
install obscenity filters on devices.
Remember COPA? Users would have
to pay a $20 fee to remove the devices and the state would have a record on who
had done paid for this.
That does seem to invite Fourth Amendment challenges.
EFF has a story by Gennier Gebhardt on it today.
Today, a dad told Trump in a meeting on CNN that his
deceased son had bought opioids on the open Internet, not the dark web.
Sarah Sanders mentioned FOSTA favorably in the Press
Briefing today and no reporters questioned her.
