AN ACT TO AMEND TITLE 6 OF THE DELAWARE CODE RELATING TO CIVIL LIABILITY AND CIVIL PENALTY FOR PUBLISHING OR DISTRUBITON OF MATERIAL HARMFUL TO MINORS ON THE INTERNET.

This act requires a commercial entity that knowingly or intentionally provides pornography and other materials defined as harmful to minors to verify the age of individuals accessing the material. Civil liability and a civil penalty are imposed on commercial entities that fail to comply with verification requirements. Additionally, an internet provider or user of an interactive computer service on the internet is not subject to liability. This act is modeled after similar laws in Virginia, Utah, and Louisiana.
