Note Rep. Cox's amendment to yank most of the FCC regulatory sections got
defeated by voice vote. So the FCC will be able to levy administrative
fines of $50,000 a day for violations, assuming this bill becomes law. 
Individuals "aggrevied" by "harmful to minors" web sites can sue for
actual *and* punitive damages. Also NTIA will study how to move "harmful
to minors" web sites to an adult.us or similar domain. Now we know why the
Post Office was itching to grab control of .us...


I will forward thoughtful analyses of this new, revised CDA II. It is up
for a vote next week.
