Internet Policy
The Miller test states that whether or not the average person with community standards would find the work appealing to the prurient interest. I think I would better define what the community standards are. I think it varies for different age groups and different companies. For example, if you are working with a law firm, the company is going to be much more conservative and restricted in their community standards. If you are working in a fashion company or a modeling agency, the chances are the community standard is much different (more open, liberal). I think it is important to define the community standard as either the work place community or the overall community in which the employees live in. Even if the community of an organization is in a conservative city, town, etc., I would want to define the community as the company community. By doing this, you could explicitly eliminate any ambiguity to which particular beliefs/morals/behaviors you are bringing into the work place. Sometimes, I think it can be ambiguous to balance company policy with your own policies.
