Evil Angel Productions vs. Community Standards
See more » Adult
The Supreme Court ruled in the 1970s that porn was subject to nebulous and variable community standards. But the web has dematerialized local distribution of entertainment so how can those standards be relevant. Evil Angel Productions may test that in Federal Appeals court shortly:
This could be an avenue for addressing the question of whether a community standards carve-out made when porn was still shown in downtown movie theaters is applicable to an era when porn is consumed at home with the blinds drawn. The right to privacy derives from technology, starting with the ability to build houses with separate rooms. There’s no reason it shouldn’t be expanding as technology advances.
