Congress turns Up The Heat On Webmasters/Bloggers

by Mike Sigers

C/Net News

Just in case you didn’t see it, I caught a thread at Promocharger, which ultimately led me to C/Net News.

The basic premise is this -

You cannot lure people to your site/blog with seemingly innocent wording ( read as headlines ) and then show them adult content.

One more reason you need to go to the Ask Bob Silber page and ask a freakin’ question.

One more reason you need all the legal education you can get about blogs – which happen to be the same thing as a website and the term Webmaster and blogger are now interchangeable.

One more reason to be careful and get some Disclaimers, some Terms of Service statements, some Child Online Protection Act info and lots of other questions answered.

Bob and I are trying to help, but we can’t help you unless you help us by asking questions.
