In Germany we had this topic before, to add a filter to "stop child porn". At first you think "yay, good idea", but on second thought you have to see it is just one step further towards control and censorship.
A nationally famous comedian delivered the following example:
"Imagine a cop witnesses a rape in progress. Instead or rushing in to stop it, he is simply establishing a visual cover so you don't see it happening."
With blocking this content, you won't help a single of those kids being abused, you just make it harder to find it and those who really want to, still will find it.
And no one need to block child porn for me and I am sure not for the very most people in this board... We won't search for it. Those who do, have their sources anyways...
As ETR3(SS) said before, it is not stopping the problem, it's just hiding it.
