| First they came for the Child Porn....
... etc etc
Nobody can stand up and defend Child Porn and Pornographers that's why it makes such a great target.
The problem is this banning/blocking/blacklisting/censoring... it's a slippery slope, or to use another analogy, it's like opening Pandora's box. This type of thing, while well meaning... it will spread... far beyond the original goals when it was first implemented.
Freedom is always taken away in inches. Inch by inch, until there's little if any left.
You can see the signs of this happening on the internet now. This type of thing is only the first step.
