************************************************************** Net Happenings - From Educational CyberPlayGround ************************************************************** Congress Ok's Internet Porn Restrictions By David McGuire washingtonpost.com Staff Writer Thursday, April 10, 2003; 7:40 PM http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-dyn/articles/A4830-2003Apr10.html Congress passed legislation today that would give jail time to online pornographers who deliberately mask their sites behind innocuous domain names. The House and Senate overwhelmingly approved the Child Abduction Prevention Act, which strengthens penalties for pedophiles, provides funding for a national child-abduction alert system and bolsters prohibitions against child pornography. The proposal is frequently referred to as the "Amber Alert" bill. "America's children will be safer when this bill becomes law," House Majority Leader Tom DeLay (R-Texas) said today.
