The Supreme Court seems eager to curb First Amendment protections for porn

On Wednesday, the Supreme Court heard the first major First Amendment case involving pornography — or, for that matter, sexual speech of any kind — in more than two decades. It’s also the first such case since Republicans gained a 6-3 supermajority on the Supreme Court. And it’s a case that potentially allows the justices to both limit adults’ access to pornography and walk back longstanding free speech protections for sexual content.
Wednesday’s oral argument went disastrously for the porn industry. Current protections for online sexual content don’t seem like they will be completely destroyed, but all six of the Court’s Republicans plus Democratic Justice Elena Kagan appear likely to weaken those First Amendment protections (although it remains to be seen just how far they will go in doing so).
