CIPA

Bill 114 s 1846, also known as the Children's Internet Protection Act (CIPA), is a piece of legislation that was introduced in the United States Congress. The main purpose of this bill is to protect children from harmful and inappropriate content on the internet.

Under CIPA, schools and libraries that receive federal funding for internet access are required to implement measures to filter out obscene or harmful content. This includes blocking access to websites that contain pornography, violence, or other inappropriate material.

In addition to filtering content, CIPA also requires schools and libraries to educate minors about appropriate online behavior, internet safety, and cyberbullying prevention. This is aimed at promoting responsible internet use among children and teenagers. CIPA has been praised for its efforts to protect children from harmful online content, but it has also faced criticism for potentially limiting access to educational resources and infringing on freedom of speech. Supporters argue that the benefits of protecting children outweigh these concerns. Overall, Bill 114 s 1846, CIPA, is an important piece of legislation that aims to safeguard children from harmful internet content and promote responsible online behavior.
