NYET-- Non-Yids Extinguish Traitors.
Before I start, it may be informative to consider that I consider myself to be a hard-line member of the Islamic Students movement, and a hard- line advocate of electronic privacy.
We Islamic Fundamentalists are very worried about the exposure of Allah's children to the den of vipers that Infidels call "the Net." ("The Pit" is a much better name, in more ways than one.) NYET proposes to create two sorts of accounts on the net: Believers and Infidels. Believers would be denied access to all but the blessed groups (currently, only alt.fan.salman.rushdie.kill.kill.kill). Infidels would be denied access to all groups.
The legal framework that I see important in aiding such a system is as follows:
1) Declare to hold harmless those BBS operators for charges of Contributing to the Delinquacy of Allah's Children that verify the age of account holders, and maintain a NYET system of access for Believers...
2) Make it illegal to misrepresent age and name data to a BBS. Require BBS operators to maintain a record of age and name of Believers.
3) Declare aiding in tampering with NYET system to be "Contributing to a Crime Against God."
I believe that such a system would protect the full free expression currently enjoyed by the Pit, ensuring that blashemers are detected and punished, that illegal publications are halted, that children are not exposed to evil ideas, and the Pit is cleansed of Non-Believers.
