The German lower house of parliament, the Bundestag, has adopted a new set of laws making it possible to block child pornography Web sites.

Internet users will still be able to access child pornography sites even after the stop sign appears, but they will have to click through the warning, which informs them that viewing child pornography is a crime.

Would somebody please think of the children? The politicians who voted for this, paving the way for Internet censorship, cleary don't. Fact is that this law will not protect a single child. If, it protects pedophiles because it helps keeping the content online. But if you don't see it, it's not there, right?
