US says bloggers and Web sites must abide by election law restrictions
Quote:The Internet's freewheeling days as a place exempt from the heavy hand of federal election laws are about to end.

Late Friday, the Federal Election Commission released a 96-page volume of Internet regulations that have been anticipated for more than a year and represent the government's most extensive foray yet into describing how bloggers and Web sites must abide by election law restrictions.

The rules say that paid Web advertising, including banner ads and sponsored links on search engines, will be regulated like political advertising in other types of media.

Update: Bloggers, Web sites and US election law restrictions
Update:

Quote:The Federal Election Commission decided Monday that the nation's new campaign finance law will not apply to most political activity on the internet.

In a 6-0 vote, the commission decided to regulate only paid political ads placed on another person's website.

The decision means that bloggers and online publications will not be covered by provisions of the new election law. Internet bloggers and individuals will therefore be able to use the internet to attack or support federal candidates without running afoul of campaign spending and contribution limits.
