President Clinton Endorses User Empowerment Approach [July 16, 1997]
CDT-coordinated group releases White Paper on user empowerment tools
In a meeting with public interest advocates and industry representatives today, President Clinton and Vice President Gore said that user control, as opposed to CDA-style content regulations, is the best way to help parents prevent their kids from accessing inappropriate material on the Internet. The President also announced a continuing effort to educate
the public about the availability of user empowerment technology.
In conjunction with the White House event, CDT and an ad hoc group of
industry and consumer/public interest groups released a White Paper
documenting the availability and effectiveness of user empowerment tools
for the Internet. CDT and the Voters Telecommunications Watch also unveiled Netparents.org, a new web site designed to provide resources for Internet parents.
