Did anyone see the item all over the front page of the Observer today? It has an item quoting the Internet Service Providers Association as saying that Demon Internet was undermining the fight against child pornography. Demon director Clive Feather says "if we could block this stuff without doing more harm to ourselves, we would". He says he does not believe there is any evidence to suggest that pornographic photos of children encourage paedophiles. Personally I feel that there is no evidence one way or the other, so therefore we should take the attitude that many of the pictures shown were taken in appalling circumstances and should be banned. Even if it does Demon financial harm to ban them, it might also harm Demon to be seen not to be against child pornography. At some point, we have to decide what we are for and against. Anyhow, what do other people think. And does anyone have an address for Clive Feather, so I can write to him personally? J. Woolf.
