Some facts

1.All cases and rulings of "Courts of Record" are reported. That includes all US District, Tax and Appeals Courts and most State courts other than Justice, small claims and Municipal courts.

2. The safe rule to follow in any site is the one laid out in COPA even though it is not being enforced due to the injunction on it's enforcement. No "harmful material" or Pornography in front of an adult firewall. The definition of adult firewall includes a safe harbor for credit cards. The law was written befire kiddie cards became an item.

So if you want to play it safe
1. Don't use a domain name that appeals to children
2. Tease but don't have any pornography on any pages that can be viewed without entering a credit card or some other typpe of age verification.
