Searching for porn
So, the government is trying to access Google's search archives. Why? So they can make a case for the Online Child Protection Act. So our children don't see porn.
The last time I checked, almost every internet software provider offers search protection and that shit for the exact same reason. And also, the last time I checked, I didn't think the government should be telling people how to raise their children.
Why would a 5-year old be searching for something that would turn up pornography? If they are, maybe that's what they're looking for. Why should we stop them? They're going to find out someday. My parents still have a restriction on TV shows with a PG-13 rating. I started watching R-rated movies when I was about 3 years old. I'm not a pervert and I'm not trying to blow anything up. Seeing naked people doesn't ruin anyone's life.
The only reason that porn sites or graphic pictures would disturb children is because we taught them to avoid these images and be disturbed by them. Then, one day when they're "grown up," it's okay for them to think about nudity and sex.
Am I off base here?
...my kids are going to be so fucked up.

I'm guessing the last time you checked, you didn't run into some little organizations called Child Welfare Services.
