Communications Technology Commission

The Communications Technology Commission, also known as the CommLink Technology Commission is the communications authority responsible for regulating the Virtual Reality Net and for protecting the public from what may be considered harmful or offensive material. It is an autonomous authority within the CommLink Satellite Service.

On 11 April 2144, the Communications Technology Commission announced an experimental procedure called a Lock-out Lens which would make it impossible for children to enter the VR Net until they are old enough to have it removed. The Parents' Association supported this move, seeing it as a way to restrict access to simulated sex, virtual religious cults, and Digman bands. However, Hollywood Island Studios claimed the procedure amounted to censorship.
