Recent examples include asking internet porn sites to have a "metacode" put in their site so that internet blocking software can block those sites from our children instead of allowing them to slip through. The ACLU is vehemently opposing this on "free speech" grounds.
But, this same proposed legislation would put Victoria's Secret's website into the category of pornography (I heard the story on NPR this morning). Does that seem right? Who decides which websites are "pornographic" and which aren't? The government? Yikes!

This metacode thing sounds like a good idea on the surface until you start looking at the details.
