In a state network or consortia setting, who is responsible for making sure that the schools and libraries are filtering or blocking covered material?
The answer to this question is not clear. The FCC and USAC have made it very clear that they consider the question of “what technology protection measure” is selected to be a local decision. Ultimately, if a school or school district certifies that it is compliant with CIPA or that it is undertaking actions to become compliant and will be compliant by E-Rate Year 5, the “administrative authority” making that certification has made a legal claim about that compliance status – and they should be prepared to back up that statement.
