Has the Web lived up to its promise?
"The Internet is 'a unique and wholly new medium of worldwide human communication.'"
ACLU v. Reno, United States Supreme Court (June 1997)
"The Internet is a far more speech-enhancing medium than print, the village green, or the mails.... The Internet may fairly be regarded as a never-ending worldwide conversation."
ALA v US Department of Justice, United States District Court for the Eastern District of Pennsylvania, Judge Stewart Dalzell (June 1996)
