    Do they really think they can limit free speech like that? How will this law stand up to legal challenges?

      Not sure if this is sarcasm but can you explain how this relates to free speech?

        Not trying to be funny at all with this comment.

        Blocking websites blocks speech. Speech is generally defined pretty broadly in the American court system and this seems pretty clear cut. If you can’t censor music or stop people from wearing certain clothes then I think blocking websites looks a lot like censorship of speech that should be free.

        IANAL, but I think (and hope) there would be legal challenges to a law like this.
