Is David Cameron using the hysterical propaganda from childrens charities about paedophiles, in an attempt to censor and control the internet?

I think it's just a vote winning strategy because I can't imagine it doing anything at all to stop child pornography, in fact I think it will make it harder to detect offenders. Anyone involved in something so illegal and so dark and wrong will turn to peer to peer if they are not already using it, and pay for it with Bitcoins or other alternative currency....

Not sure that's accurate. The effort at the moment is wholly centred on search engines, such as Google. However, logic dictates that service providers who actually host these sites need to be shut, rather than seath engines, who earn no revenue by providing listings.
And that's the big problem...because the are held outside the UK, where our government has no jurisdiction.

Stopping google listing it just sends it deeper underground, when they ought to be using Google etc to track down who is hosting it and who is uploading and downloading it. Still it makes it LOOK as if he's doing something about it, so it's a vote winner.
I'm not sure about the technicalities sp1814 but I am glad someone is raising the profile of this business. Just-Judes assertion is plain daft. Cameron is just doing his job of leading the nation, and this is from someone who didn't vote for him.
If Tesco was selling pornography alongside its carrots, nobody would have much time for their excuse that "it came from abroad"
It can't possibly be beyond the ken of the vast internet industry to get its act together and stop the worst of this disgusting business.
The reality is that they make money from it and that is while they are sitting on the sidelines and ringing their hands in dispair.

This is the kind of thing that can only be addresed by international action and unilaterals with other governments - there is absolutely nothing the UK government can do on its own that can stop this problem, and this is blindingly obvious to anyone who knows the least thing about the internet.
It's posturing.

The bandwagon on here is the posters using it as an opportunity to have a go at Cameron because they don't support him. How you can call it censorship or pointless is beyond me. At least he's trying to do something. I find it quite offensive to suggest that his motive is primarily vote winning and also to suggest that adults should have the option to watch depravity.
