What is the current state of the law on indecent content?

The statement of the court in People v. Winters (294 N.Y. 545, 550, 551, revd. on other grounds 333 U. S. 507), dealing with a different subdivision of the same indecency section of the Penal Law is most apposite. The court there said: "Indecency and obscenity are not and never have been technical terms of the law and hence we are without any full or rigorous definition of the uses made thereof in the administration of justice. * * * Consequently, a question as to whether a particular publication is indecent or obscene in that sense is a question of the times
