| Title | Children's Internet Protection Act (CIPA) Ruling |
| Note | Reading ease score: 39.7 (College-level). Difficult to read. |
| Note | This is an important ruling for Project Gutenberg, in that it removes the necessity for US libraries to run filtering software as had been ordered by the CIPA legislation. PG doesn't usually distribute legislation and rulings, but in this case it seemed worthwhile. At 195 pages, the ruling is an extensive and informed look at Internet use and censorship. |

| Summary | The "Children's Internet Protection Act (CIPA) Ruling" is a legal ruling document authored by Chief Circuit Judge Becker and others in the early 21st century. This ruling addresses the constitutionality of the Children's Internet Protection Act, specifically challenging the requirement for public libraries to employ filtering software to access federal funding programs. The central focus of this ruling revolves around the implications of filter technologies on patrons' First Amendment rights, particularly concerning unwanted restrictions against accessing constitutionally protected material. At the start of the ruling, the court outlines the legal framework surrounding CIPA and the plaintiff’s allegations, including the concerns of public libraries and the implications of using filtering software that may restrict access to important information. The document establishes the significant role of public libraries in providing Internet access to patrons while highlighting the challenges they face from the proliferation of inappropriate online content and the effectiveness and limitations of filtering software. The opening portion sets the stage for a detailed examination of how filtering measures can inadvertently block access to valuable and constitutionally protected speech, thereby suggesting potential conflicts between regulatory measures and individual freedoms.
