No.668
Internet filters are widely used on public and staff computers in public schools and libraries across the country to block content and websites in order to be in compliance with the Children's Internet Protection Act (CIPA). The law was passed in 2000 and requires that all public libraries and schools that receive federal funds through the E-rate program or the Library Services and Technology Act, install filters to block child pornography and obscene or “harmful to minors” images.
