Search Engines and Children What Google finds with word like: Barbie Toys “Many people mistakenly believe that because children cannot go into a 7-11 and buy Playboy magazine, the same must be true on the Internet. Unfortunately, children have free and easy access to all of the estimated 73,000 commercial porn sites on the Internet, the vast majority of which actually meet the Miller test as obscenity, and are therefore illegal material not considered protected by the First Amendment “ http://www.enough.org/

  24. How Filters Work* • Filtering software blocks sites based on • Software analysis; • Human analysis; and/or • Site labeling. * The following content prepared by Patrick Douglas Crispen

  25. Part Three:Do Filters WORK? The answer seems to be a resounding maybe.

  26. THE TRUTH IS THAT FILTERING SOFTWARE KIND OF WORKS AND KIND OF DOESN’T.
