The U.S. Department of Justice will push for new legislation that requires all commercial Web sites to label every page that includes adult material in an effort to protect Web surfers from pornography, the agency announced today.
The Justice Department, in an initiative aimed at child pornography, also wants legislation that would prohibit commercial Web sites from initially displaying sexually explicit material without further action, such as an additional click, by the viewer. U.S. Attorney General Alberto Gonzales called for the new laws in a speech at the National Center for Missing and Exploited Children in Alexandria, Virginia.
