Are there FCC regulations against sexual solicitation and harassment over the internet?

I do not believe the Federal Communications Commision has such regulations. However, most, if not all, US states have laws regarding this issue. You should follow the laws of your state in regards to this matter.

There can be any number of legal issues that arise, ranging from H/R issues (e.g., can the employees use their computers for non work related communcation via the internet, and to what extent; whether e-mail will be monitored) to liability issues - such as litigation that can result if sexually explicit images are displayed on a computer that are offensive, and thus potentially harassing to others.

There is no agency that regulates business websites. Esentially, if there is some type of fraud or other illegal activities comitted by the business online, then the Cybercrimes division of the FBI would handle that. \n\n* I hope that is what you meant. Your question was a bit vague.

I have complained to the FCC, the FTC and my congressional representatives. The fact that someone can purchase my home address, access my records and get my phone number with just a few keystrokes is outrageous!

illegally on the internet somewhere

in news stories of columbine type massacres they have pointed out how the people were said to have communicated over the Internet.  I hardly see how it would be possible but if the Bushies want to further restrict free speech like in the phone taps they'll figure out a way to do it.  \n\nI can see how you might monitor suspicious subjects but with the mass number of communications over the net don't see how you could ever obtain any useful info.  I can email my uncle that lives across town through a server in Asia, ya know what I mean.

Assuming you mean monitoring employee's e-mail originating from company computers, I would not favor the law.  Employers lose millions of hours of productivity to online gaming and other personal uses of the internet such as personal e-mail, all on the employer's bill.  Employee use of internet resources should be monitored and those that abuse the system for hours each day should be docked pay for every hour they waste.

If I understand your question, it is about how managing ethical standard in technlogy shapes the work environment or culture.  Well, technolgoy has given us many modes of communication. If one works in an office where "anything goes", there would undoubtedly be pornography and other improper things on the computers, instant messages and e-mails to employees that are unwanted and considered harrassment, etc.  \n\nHigh ethical standards and rules that are enforced keep the work environment comfortable.  It ensures that sexual harrassment and things does not happen.\n\nSue

I see it as this. The users participating in e-fornification are probably unable to have sexual gratification in the real world, so they take their perversions into the online communities, and force us to watch them go "*oh baby oh baby*".\nPersonally, I want to puke in my soup when I see this. It's pointless, and proves nothing, other than SOME of them have some idea how to engage in sexual activities.

No. Labor laws vary by state, but that isn't a God-given right, the way life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness are.\n\nIn fact, in a worse-case scenario, if you posted pictures from the "Big Topless Babes on Big Bikes" Magazine and the corporation did nthing to stop you, a woman who was offended could sue them for a couple of hundred thousand dollars for sexual harassment.\n\nVirtually all corporations have policies about bulletin boards. Most of them don't want sex, politics, money or religion discussed in the work place or posted on their bulletin boards, so, if they have one, they don't allow tracts from competing denominations, political posters, ads for Avon products or offers from "generous" older men looking for discrete single women 18 - 25 who look good in tight tops.\n\nThe possibilities for mis-use are endless. If they let you put up a BB with cute pictures of your puppies / grandchildren / kittens / roses, they have to let me put up one with cute pictures of my new wife in a bikini, plus posters for the WatchTower warning everyone that the end of the world is coming. Then they have to have an HR person come by and argue with me.\n\nIt is just easier to say "no". Most corpoarte BB's have nothing but the OSHA warnings, position announcements and flyers about the company picnic. They are safe but dull.\n\nIn a related issue, you have the freedom of speech, but you can't spend company time trying to convert your fellow employees to your brand of politics or religion; they are paying you to be an accountant, programmer, mechanic, clerk, CEO, sales person, waiter, etc etc. They frown on you doing it on lunch breaks, too.

I'm assuming you are talking about child pornography.  If that is the case, contact your local or district prosecuting attorney's office.  They should have a division that deals with cyber crimes.\n\nThey will point you in the right direction there.  You would not prosecute them, the state would.

NetHearts.com\nFeatures like\n1. Making a counter on how many responses a person has got.\n2.Removing fake profiles.\n3.Not allowing Escorts over the site.\n4.Not allowing nudity/porn images.\n\npoints 3 and 4 could be allowed if it was a flirting/escort agency or madfun site. Else I think better not to take those.

Title VII of the Civil Rights Act of 1964\n\nhttp://www.eeoc.gov/policy/vii.html\n\nhttp://www.eeoc.gov/facts/fs-sex.html\n\nUnwelcome sexual advances, requests for sexual favors, and other verbal or physical conduct of a sexual nature constitutes sexual harassment when submission to or rejection of this conduct explicitly or implicitly affects an individual's employment, unreasonably interferes with an individual's work performance or creates an intimidating, hostile or offensive work environment.\n\nSexual harassment can occur in a variety of circumstances, including but not limited to the following:\n\nThe victim as well as the harasser may be a woman or a man.

Absolutely there are laws to protect you, but what you have stated is somewhat vague, you should try asking a more specific questions, where did the icident take place home, work? what kind of harassment? sexual, physical,or verbal was it your boss or a coworker.

Absolutely not!!! It can be hacked or intercepted by the government without warrant. Treat the Internet as if it were a sidewalk and say just what you would say and do there.
