Per the judgment, parental monitoring software is both superior in efficacy, per the state's own findings, and sufficient under the intent of the law to prevent minors from accessing pornography, while not inviting first amendment challenges

In other words, as the state likes to claim about schools, parents are the ones responsible for preventing access to content the parents fund questionable.

My full explainer of the judgment is above if you'd like to read it.
