More specifically, in Part I, this paper will focus on clarifying the murkiness surrounding child pornography and the Internet; Part II, will examine the pre-existing law and its effectiveness in helping victims of child pornography hold negligent ISPs responsible for knowingly hosting illegal material; and Part III, will argue that similar to Copyright Law, the safe harbor provision of Section 230 (“§ 230”) of the Communications Decency Act (“CDA”), should be amended to hold ISPs accountable when they have actual knowledge that one of their websites is hosting child pornography.en-USlawchild pornographyprotectionvictimssafe harborArticle
