CDT Urges Lawmakers To Withdraw ".xxx" Legislation - CDT is urging Sens. Max Baucus (D-Mont.) and Mark Pryor (D-Ark.) to withdraw a bill that would force Internet authorities to create a ".xxx" domain for adult content. In a letter sent this week to the Senators, who co-sponsored S. 2426, the Cyber Safety for Kids Act of 2006, CDT warns that the bill will provide ammunition for those seeking to bring the Internet under the control of a multi-governmental bureaucracy. If passed, the bill would also violate the First Amendment rights of Web site operators and would do little to protect children from harmful material online, CDT wrote. March 24, 2006
