The Internet will be subject to significant regulation by the end of 1996. Regulation means that ordinary activities of Internet users entail adhering to government requirements. This includes, but is not limited to, providing proof of identity or age to obtain Internet access, restrictions on anonymous mail or requiring content review of email or bboard posts. This claim does not address enforcing existing laws against illegal activities, such as redistribution of copyrighted materials, fraud, and terroristic threats. Regulations imposed by the end of 96, which take effect later, satisfy this claim. Regulation by the US Government or at least 10 states would qualify.
None.
