=What are the free speech ramifications of web filtering?=

From what has been read within these three sites having to do with web filtering and free speech. There are and still is much debate and workings to quell or fix the various issues caused by the new government demanded law that all governmentally owned schools and libraries must have a web filter on all computers that are accessible by students or the public. It has been stated that as much of a good idea it is for having web filters, it infringes on the rights of free speech and censorship act in which students and the public are unable to access certain legitimate information regarding their search. For example a teacher searching for articles about the terrorist attack of 9/11. As the sites blocked do to the filter blocking them for "offensive" acts of "terrorism."
