Summary

Dot Kids Implementation and Efficiency Act of 2002 - Amends the National Telecommunications and Information Administration Organization Act to direct the Secretary of Commerce to assign to the National Telecommunications and Information Administration (NTIA) responsibility for providing for the establishment, and overseeing operation, of a second-level Internet domain within the U.S. country code domain that provides access only to materials suitable for, and not harmful to, minors. Directs NTIA to require the same registry selected to operate and maintain the U.S. country code to establish, operate, and maintain such second-level domain. Requires the selected registry, as a condition of contract renewal, to provide and implement written content standards for the new domain and a process for the removal of content that does not meet such standards. Requires the NTIA to publicize the availability of the new domain and to educate parents of minors regarding the process for utilizing such domain in coordination with filtering or blocking technologies. Provides for Comptroller General review of the registry selected and the domain content.
