Texas mulls law forcing ISPs to block access to abortion websites
facing a shareholder vote
"This is a sweeping proposal that calls for network-level filtering of people's access to information online," Emma Llansó, director of the Free Expression Project at the Center for Democracy and Technology, told."It violates people's rights to access information and to keep their communications private."
Additionally, it would ban service providers from allowing access to any websites or services operated by"an abortion provider or abortion fund," along with those"designed to assist or facilitate" women seeking an abortion. The use of"facilitates" is troubling because it can be interpreted so broadly, Llansó said.
