> There is no slippery slope from child porn prohibition to political censorship, as so many other commenters fear.
The UK ISPs implemented Cleanfeed, a joint database to block access to child abuse materials, many years ago. Your feelings were pretty common.
Since then Cleanfeed has expanded to censor copyright infringing sites by court diktact, and proposed legislation (which will, in some form pass) will effectively use it to block all sites not suitable for under 13 unless they implement age verification and where the guidelines can be updated at will explicitly for policial purposes by the Secretary of State.
So it is pretty hard to take your statement seriously where such slope exists and many of us are much further down it.
