If a rapist and/or child abuser spend half his day looking at these sick things instead of doing it in real life - I'd say that they are actually quite positive.

However, in psychological terms, it doesn't work like that: people get motivated instead and thrive on internet porn to "fuel" their desires to do the things they won't do as human beings in reality.

For example if you saw that 'raping' is "cool" on the net, and you had that same belief, you'd be more likely to do it in real life? Simple!

So my view? I hate it, it is disgusting and open up a gateway to kiddies when a child says "Mummy! (points at the woman's breasts) what's THAT thing!

But you have to admit, it is not a form of heavy crime. There is no obligation to view the crap, but if you want to - it is solely your own responsibility.

Hopefully this new "government internet security" policy, will be better than we'd hope it'll be.

But then there's the issue of privacy? Who's up for that?
