The great moralist would have all of society moving at a snails pace. How many laws go - it might affect some people badly, so therefore it should not be allowed. Never mind the 99+% of the poulation who would be able to cope with it without rushing out to run over pedestrians, go on a killing spree or rape a child. We are trying to make laws for the least common denomiator, instead of having a system where the majority of well adjusted 'normal' people have access to any information they may need/want, and providing support or restrictions for the populous deemed unstable. There is no such thing as a perfect system as far as humans go, but who really believe's that if the law gets past it will make any impact into child sexplotation, just as banning Video nasties will not make an impact in the amount of murders.
