SEC. 3. CHILD PORNOGRAPHY AND OBSCENITY AMENDMENTS.

    (a) Findings.--Congress makes the following findings:
            (1) It is important that electronic communications service 
        providers report the presence of child pornography on the 
        Internet to the CyberTipline at the National Center for Missing 
        and Exploited Children for the following reasons:
                    (A) A substantial interstate market in child 
                pornography exists, including not only a multimillion 
                dollar industry, but also a nationwide network of 
                individuals who openly advertise their desire to 
                exploit children and to traffic in child pornography. 
                Many of these individuals distribute child pornography 
                with the expectation of receiving other child 
                pornography in return.
                    (B) The interstate market in child pornography is 
                carried on to a substantial extent through the mails 
                and other instrumentalities of interstate and foreign 
                commerce, such as the Internet. The advent of the 
                Internet has greatly increased the ease of 
                transporting, distributing, receiving, and advertising 
                child pornography in interstate commerce. The advent of 
                digital cameras, as well as videotape cameras, has 
                greatly increased the ease of producing child 
                pornography. The advent of inexpensive computer 
                equipment with the capacity to store large numbers of 
                digital images of child pornography has greatly 
                increased the ease of possessing child pornography. 
                Taken together, these technological advances have had 
                the unfortunate result of greatly increasing the 
                interstate market in child pornography.
                    (C) The reporting of violations of the child 
                pornography laws by electronic communications service 
                providers to the CyberTipline at the National Center 
                for Missing and Exploited Children, which in turn 
                forwards such reports to law enforcement agencies 
                designated by the Attorney General, reduces both supply 
                and demand in the interstate market for child 
                pornography and enhances the prosecution of such 
                offences.
            (2) It is important to require that warning labels be 
        placed on commercial websites that contain sexually explicit 
        material for the following reasons:
                    (A) The World Wide Web contains a substantial 
                amount of sexually explicit content that is 
                inappropriate for children to view.
                    (B) Many such commercial websites may accidentally 
                be visited by children or other individuals who do not 
                wish to view sexually explicit content.
                    (C) The provision of information on each page of a 
                commercial website that contains sexually explicit 
                material indicating that such material is present will 
                enable filtering software and other tools to identify 
                websites to place on their list of websites to be 
                blocked by the software to more effectively protect 
                children and other individuals from inadvertently 
                viewing material that they do not wish to view.
                    (D) Requiring websites to provide information about 
                the presence of sexually explicit material on their 
                ``home page'' will allow individuals to make an 
                individualized decision about whether to view such 
                material and will protect such individuals from 
                inadvertently being subjected to such material.
            (3) It is important to prohibit the embedding of words or 
        images on a website in order to deceive individuals into 
        viewing obscenity or to deceive minors into viewing material 
        harmful to minors for the following reasons:
                    (A) Many websites containing sexually explicit 
                material attempt to lure unsuspecting victims, 
                primarily children, into visiting these sites by 
                embedding commonly used search terms or phrases within 
                the source code of the website.
                    (B) Luring unsuspecting victims to such commercial 
                websites is a form of fraud that has substantial impact 
                on interstate commerce.
                    (C) Prohibiting the use of such misleading and 
                deceptive words or images will serve to reduce the 
                instance of such fraudulent activity.
    (b) Strengthening Section 13032 of Title 42 to Ensure That Child 
Pornography Is Effectively Reported.--Section 227(b)(4) of the Victims 
of Child Abuse Act of 1990 (42 U.S.C. 13032(b)(4)) is amended to read 
as follows:
            ``(4) Failure to report.--
                    ``(A) Willful violations.--A provider of electronic

                fined--
                            ``(i) in the case of an initial failure to 
                        make a report, not more than $150,000; and
                            ``(ii) in the case of any second or 
                        subsequent failure to make a report, not more 
                        than $300,000.
                    ``(B) Negligent violations.--A provider of 
                electronic communications services or remote computing 
                services described in paragraph (1) who negligently 
                fails to make a report under that paragraph shall be 
                fined--
                            ``(i) in the case of an initial failure to 
                        make a report, not more than $50,000; and
                            ``(ii) in the case of any second or 
                        subsequent failure to make a report, not more 
                        than $100,000.
                    ``(C) Authority of the fcc.--For purposes of this 
                paragraph, the Federal Communications Commission shall 
                have the authority to levy civil penalties under 
                subparagraph (B) and shall promulgate regulations, in 
                consultation with the Attorney General--
                            ``(i) to effectuate the purposes of 
                        subparagraph (B); and
                            ``(ii) to provide for appropriate 
                        administrative review of any civil penalties 
                        levied under that subparagraph.''.
    (c) Requiring That Warning Labels Be Placed on Commercial Websites 
Containing Sexually Explicit Material.--The Controlling the Assault of 
Non-Solicited Pornography and Marketing Act of 2003 is amended by 
adding at the end the following:

``SEC. 17. REQUIREMENT TO PLACE WARNING LABELS ON COMMERCIAL WEBSITES 
              CONTAINING SEXUALLY EXPLICIT MATERIAL.

    ``(a) In General.--No person who operates a website located on the 
Internet where such website is primarily operated for commercial 
purposes, in or affecting interstate or foreign commerce, may

            ``(1) fail to include on each page of the website that 
        contains sexually explicit material, the marks and notices
