AOL and Free Speech

8:22:07 PM
comment []
It appears the Virginia Supreme Court has dealt the First Amendment another setback. This looks like one of those sticky-wicket situations of trying to apply narrow, local laws across the virtual space-time of the Internet. I don't blame the Va Supremes for bowing out. We can only hope AOL takes it to the US Supremes and we get some support for the First Amendment -- it's suffered enough marginalization already in the guise of Homeland Security.

Court denies AOL's attempt to protect user identity. Case could shape how free speech is perceived online [InfoWorld: Top News]
