campingboy,

I may be wrong in my interpretation of the page to which the link above takes us, but it seems to me that it refers to “new and improved” rules which enable federal inspectors to verify that the actors in sexually explicit internet content are not children.

In and of itself, that seems to be a reasonable goal of the law passed by the U.S. Congress and signed into law eons ago (1988):

Here in the States, it is relatively easy for Congress to meddle in business activities, as Section 8 of Article I of the Constitution grants it permission to do so. Changing the rules regarding gun ownership has proven to be considerably more difficult, as the Second Amendment to the Constitution “guarantees” that “right”.

This has proven to be one of the most contentious amendments to the Constitution, second only to the one which limits its ability to establish or suppress religions or to suppress free speech. Interestingly, those are addressed by the First Amendment to the Constitution.
