 Freeedom and Censorship
There are two different positions concerning Internet control:
a) The Internet is a world wide network that should not be regulated or censored by any one country
b) Control over Internet publications that contain illegal material (e.g. child pornography and copyright issues) and legal but harmful material (pornography, racism).

On June 1998 Electronic Frontier Foundation has Re-launched Blue Ribbon Campaign to Combat Censorship of the Internet in opposition to new congressional attempts to impose censorship controls on the Internet. The original campaign,launched in conjunction with the related "Turn the Web Black" anti-censorship protest in 1995, raised awareness of and opposition to the Communications Decency Act (CDA), which was eventually ruled unconstitutional by a unanimous Supreme Court decision.
