The Communications Decency Act was a law aimed at regulating online speech and was struck down by the Supreme Court in 1997 because it violated the First Amendment's right to freedom of speech. The law was seen as overly broad and vague, and it sought to regulate online content in a way that was inconsistent with established free speech principles. As such, the Court found that the law was unconstitutional and could not be enforced.
