Could someone PLEASE tell me how in the world this bill is going to  
"violate" ANY of my rights?  I have read the bill, and I don't recall  
anything to this effect.  

As I read it, it would force people to prevent information providers to make  
sure that thier content is decent, and if not, make sure no one under age  
can get to it.  The smut-providers won't have to close shop, they will just  
have to do a better job of keeping my 5 year old out of thier stuff.

If anything, this bill is good for the internet, and I hope other countries  
around the world will follow our example....
