“ACLU attorney Michael Risher opened his argument by evoking the compelling image of a registrant who wishes to make an anonymous critical comment about his local police department on the online comment section of his local newspaper, ‘His speech will be chilled knowing that the police has his online identities down at the station.’ There are signs that restricting registrants’ access to the Internet, in particular social media, is a growing trend. North Carolina has banned registrants from social networks like Facebook and other chat rooms, and Pennsylvania is considering similar legislation. Earlier this year, a similar ban in Indiana was struck down by a court of appeals.”
