In Reno vs. ACLU, the court decides the anti-indecency sections of the Communications Decency Act to be unconstitutional because of the following:
Is it be possible for ISP servers to make it mandatory for children and adults enter a password before gaining access to the Internet? If so, there could be a "filtered" internet that only children have access to. If they wanted to gain access to an "un-filtered" internet with adult content, they would have to gain consent from their parents first. By the court's definition, would the password accessible Internet for adults and children be considered a "burden" on adult speech?
Also, this "password accessible internet" would be useful in preventing child predators from connecting with children. ISP's could require registered sexual offenders to have a different password to gain internet access. Then, their internet access would prevent them from entering children chat rooms.
