A newly proposed bill in Louisiana will prevent students, staff, and faculty from accessing pornography while connected to public university wifi.
Senate Bill 131 , sponsored by Republican lawmaker Beth Mizell would require universities to step in and block certain websites and content from being used.
According to the bill, types of content that will be restricted include “sexually explicit, pornographic, or sexually harassing.”
It will require public universities to uphold policies that prohibit such content to be accessed on campus. It also will require universities to take on online measures to block sexually explicit content from being viewed under university wifi connections.
Under this bill, students are still able to access websites that may be blocked by their university. In order to do so, written authorization is needed by the institution who is then required to keep the access request on file.
If students and staff members wish to access pornography on their personal devices , they will be required to utilize another off-campus router to do so, reports the Lousiana Illuminator .
Louisiana State University student Madeline Costa shared her thoughts on pornography, along with Rep. Mizell’s attempt to prevent students from accessing it.
“Pornography is an evil that can lead to so many harmful effects, like addiction and forming a distorted view on relationships,” Costa told Campus Reform .However, she also said that the bill “has too many holes in its logic,” calling it “invasive.””Already with the statement that it will prohibit students and faculty from accessing pornography on their personal devices makes it that way,” she said. “It’s breaching privacy.”She admitted that the bill would make more sense if geared towards faculty, as “it’s obvious that they shouldn’t do anything remotely inappropriate at the workplace.”Overall, Costa does not think the university should have a say in what members of their community […]
Yes, We Need Your Help
I hate being “that guy” who asks people to donate because I think our conservative news network is so crucial, but here I am…
When I left my cushy corporate job in 2017, I did so knowing that my family would have to make sacrifices. But I couldn’t continue to watch the nation slip into oblivion and was inspired by President Trump’s willingness to fight the good fight even at his own personal expense. What I didn’t realize then is that conservative media would be so heavily attacked, canceled, and defunded that the sacrifices would be extreme.
Many in this nation are struggling right now even though we weren’t struggling just a few years ago. I’m not alone. But I wake up every morning and operate the sites we’ve been able to build because there’s really no other choice. I refuse to be beholden to Big Tech like so many other conservative news outlets, which is why you won’t see Google ads here. With that said, it’s often challenging to pay the bills and it’s even harder to expand so we can get the America First message out to a wider audience.
The economic downturn has forced me to make a plea for help. Between cancel culture, lockdowns, and diminishing ad revenue, we need financial assistance in order to continue to spread the truth. We ask all who have the means, please donate through our Giving Fuel. Your generosity is what keeps these sites running and allows us to expand our reach so the truth can get to the masses. We’ve had great success in growing but we know we can do more with your assistance.
We currently operate:
- NOQ Report
- Conservative Playlist
- Uncanceled News
- Based Underground
- Five other conservative news sites
I would even be willing to entertain investments and partnerships at this stage. I’ve turned them down in the past because editorial purity is extremely important. I’ll turn them down again if anyone wants us to start supporting RINOs or avoid “taboo” topics like voter fraud, vaccines, or transgender supremacy. But I’d talk to fellow America First patriots who want to help any (or all) of our 10 news sites. Hit me up at jdrucker (at) substack (dot) com if you’re interested.
For those who have the means and just want to help keep the mission of spreading a conservative, Christian message to the nation, please consider a generous donation.
