Tune in September 17: Free Speech in Cyberspace

Created by Peggy Kurkowski (EDUCAUSE) on September 10, 2008

This webcast provides a brief overview of several novel and emerging dimensions of free expression in digital communications: how the Supreme Court has dealt with Internet speech under the First Amendment, problems posed by the content of web pages on university servers, the emerging challenge of "invasive" sites like Juicycampus.com, the largely fruitless quest for legal relief by victims of cyberattacks (including the challenge of "unmasking" anonymous critics), and the status of suggestively explicit material on college and university servers.

In this free September 17 EDUCAUSE Live! web seminar, Constitution Day 2008: Free Speech in Cyberspace, presenter Robert M. O'Neil, director, Thomas Jefferson Center for the Protection of Free Expression, will explore these new and emerging dimensions of free expression.

Those unable to attend may wish to visit the archives after the event or browse related EDUCAUSE resources on Communications Deceny Act, Internet Content Regulation, and Free Speech.
