The thing that is slighty scarey is the attitude of 'if it's suspected kiddie porn then we can ignore basic human rights' that a lot of authorities seem to have. I see the new bogeyman, the dreaded paedo looming large everywhere and it's worrying. Everyone loudly proclaiming their loathing of kiddie porn and yet it still goes on. We, as a society, sell tube tops, lingerie and mini-skirts for under 10s, have under 10s dancing in overtly sexual ways, have under 10s wearing make-up and yet we say 'Oh, these perverts, what makes them be so beastly?' We're dangling carrots in front of them every day. I don't know what the solution is. When I hear what some poor kids go through I want to take an 'chop the paedophile's balls off' approach to justice but I know that that way is not the way to go but I don't think that an image hunt will solve very much either. The best action I've seen is the FBI 'sting' website where they are still tracking down the pervs and knocking on their doors to arrest them all over the Western world.
